Repell-em Blog

Look closely at my tomato garden and you will see that each tomato cage has been wound with a strip of Repell-em, and between the scent, the ends waving in the breeze, and the large Repell-em piece acting as a scarecrow there on the end, I really believe we’re going to get some tomatoes for ourselves this year.

I don’t have to worry about “insect repellent” touching my food and contaminating it in any way, because Repell-em products are made of 100% natural ingredients and are completely harmless.

The cats were used to playing in that railroad flat all winter, and it’s really funny to watch them go running toward it and then stop short, look around with a bewildered expression, and then turn and walk away.  The deer have been using that garden patch as a salad bar all winter, but now that there is actual food in it, they behave as though they can’t even see or smell it.  That’s because they can’t.  The EcoSmartPlastics Repellem strips have rendered my tomatoes unplottable!

Here’s a closer shot of a few tomato cages, so you can see in greater detail what I’ve done with the strips of Repell-em. It’s nothing fancy, obviously, but so far it’s working like a charm!

There are so many uses for your Repell-em products. So far, every experiment I’ve done with them has been successful!

All the climate scientists are reminding us that this summer’s batch of insects is the worst in a long, long time, but EcoSmartPlastics Repellem can ensure that your cookouts and picnics are bug-free, too.  And if you go for a pleasant summer walk, make it even more pleasant by tying a strip of Repellem around your ankle and wrist.  You’ll stroll absolutely unmolested by mosquitoes, gnats, chiggers, and any other summer blood-sucking pest.

EcoSmart Repellem products are almost like magic; they work so well, and are completely harmless.  Amazing!

. . . and grilling time means outdoors time.  This extra-humid and extra-pollen-ish summer has more than its share of happy and excited bugs, but when we had a cookout this past weekend, we weren’t bothered a bit by insects - not a single, tiny bit.

We didn’t use any dangerous bug sprays or smelly candles, either.  It’s not good to use poisons around food, pets, or children, and a typical cookout has all three.  All we did was put an Ecosmartplastics’ Repellem tablecloth on both round deck tables, and a couple of Repellem trash bags in the wastebaskets.  We’d need tablecloths and trash bags anyway; why not use the best: products that not only serve their usual purpose, but also keep away almost every kind of insect imaginable?

Our cooking could have been plagued with insects, attracted by the sweat, blood, and smells of the cooking food, but it wasn’t.  We didn’t have to sit at the table eating with one hand and swatting bugs away with the other.

We didn’t have to sit and put up with the overwhelming odor of anti-bug skin sprays or citronella candles, either.  All we smelled was food.

Ecosmartplastics Repellem and Eco-Smartbag products are versatile and so very, very useful.  Why put up with insects at your picnic when you can keep them away with a tablecloth?  Why put up with mice and roaches in your kitchen trash can when you can keep them away with a trash bag?

I have used Ecosmartplastics Repellem and Eco-Smartbag products ever since I first heard of them several years ago.  They are far superior to any other kind of plastic product I’ve ever used, and they are the ONLY ones that keep away insects and wild animals.   100% biodegradable and made of 100% natural products, Repellem tablecloths and trash bags will turn your buggy summers into insect-free vacations.

The prediction for the summer of 2010 is formidable:  more pollen than most people can remember, more humidity than we’ve seen in years, and more bugs.  A lot more bugs.

Ecosmartplastics Repellem can’t do anything about the pollen or the humidity, but if you use these fantastic products, you certainly won’t have to worry about or deal with the bugs!

Already, in the evenings, there’s a haze of those disgusting little biting midges, but on my deck, there are none.  My deck is like an island of purity on these spring nights, which are, in southern Indiana, already muggy and buzzy.  The neighborhood cats are starting to hang out on our big deck swing, so they don’t have to nap amidst the bugs!

How did I do this?  What complicated procedure did I use to make my deck so pleasant and insect-free?  Oh, it was difficult, all right.  I tied two Ecosmartplastics Repellem trash bags around the sidebars of the swing.

That’s all.  No poisons, no sprays, no traps.  Just two red Repellem trash bags tied around the swing.  I’ll change them every two weeks or so, all summer long.  With Ecosmartplastics Repellem, I don’t have to worry about the cats chewing on them - animals don’t like to get too near a Repellem products - or toddlers chewing on them - Repellem products are 100% natural, recyclable, and GREEN, even though they’re red. 

Harmless to all living things, Repellem simply repels.  It doesn’t kill.

My deck will be bug-free all summer.  Yours can be, too.  Order your Ecosmartplastics Repellem bags here.

It’s spring, and the weather has been just simply beautiful in southern Indiana these past few days!  We got out the lawn chairs, hosed them off, and set them out on the deck to dry.  We had no sooner turned our backs to go back inside than we heard a buzzing sound.  Turning around, we saw that the bees had discovered our water-soaked chairs.

We have kids and pets, so we don’t use dangerous chemicals or sprays.  However, since we discovered Ecosmartplastics Repellem, we don’t need to.

Tim went outside and tied a strip of Ecosmartplastics Repellem trash bag to the back legs of each lawn chair.

Within minutes, the bees were gone.  Oh, they were still alive, and busy fertilizing flowers and fruit trees and going about their beesiness, but they were no longer on our deck keeping us from sitting in our own chairs.

Ecosmartplastics Repellem & Eco-Smartbag products are the most effective and earth-friendly products you can use, for they keep all insects and small animals away, but their 100% natural ingredients and 100% recyclability make them environmentally safe.

Don’t worry about a small child or pet chewing on the Repellem strips, either; they’re completely harmless.

 You can find Ecosmartplastics Repellem & Eco-Smartbag products at these fine stores and websites.

For the past few summers, I’ve planted my tomatoes and peppers upside down and hung them from the deckposts.  I’m going to do it again this summer.

However, this summer, I’m not going to plant the tomatoes in those big bulky buckets.  Nor am I going to shell out the big bucks for one of those upside-down tomato kits.  I looked at one of those carefully in the store just today, and you know what it is?  It’s a big heavy plastic bag.

Well, I have a box of big heavy plastic bags, and mine are not only big and heavy; they’re 100% insect and animal-proof, completely biodegradable, and made of 100% natural ingredients as well!

I’m going to fill an Ecosmartplastics Repellem bag about half-full of potting soil in a month or so, and I’m going to tie it in a big knot.  I’m going to hang the dirt-filled bag over the plant hangar on the deckpost.  I’m going to make a little hole in the bottom of the bag and I’m going to plant a cherry tomato plant in the bag.  It will hang upside down on the deck, just outside the kitchen doors.  All summer long, whenever I need tomatoes for salad or just to snack on, all I have to do is open the kitchen door, take about three steps, and reach out my hand.  Not walk across the yard and bend down,  no no, just walk out the door a few steps and reach OUT.

I can eat my tomatoes right off the vine, without washing them, if I want to, and it will be safe because EcosmarPlastics and Repellem bags will keep the usual garden bugs, worms, and hungry animals away.  There will be no pesticides or poisons on my tomatoes.  Each little tomato will be perfect, because it will be untouched by insect or animal.  No turtles will take a bite.  No possums.  No raccoons.  No deer.

I can’t wait until it’s time!  I’m going to do this with all kinds of tomatoes and peppers, just like last summer, only I’m going to put ALL the plants in lovely red Ecosmartplastics Repellem bags.  My deck will look like Christmas and be like a fresh veggie buffet.

Think how nice this would be for people with small children!  Instead of snacking on candy or other sweets, or salty foods, just send the children out on the deck to help themselves to fresh, wholesome, nutritious vegetables.  Picking these themselves will become a family tradition!

EcoSmartPlastics’ Repellem & Eco-smartbag products are among the most versatile products I’ve ever used!  Not only do these products do everything they’re supposed to do; they do much more!  It seems as if every week I discover more things these products can do, and do WELL!

How many trash bags have you ever bought that will not only be receptables for your garbage and trash but will also keep insects and animals away from your garbage and trash?  Or be made of 100% recyclable, biodegradable, natural ingredients?  Or keep your winter woolens safe from moths?  Or keep the deer and bugs away from your garden?

How many outdoor tablecloths have you ever bought that will also keep the mosquitoes and gnats away from your picnic?

How many such products have you used in the past that caused you to worry and hesitate to use in or near a child or a child’s room for fear of poison, since small children chew on pretty much everything?  With Ecosmartplastics Repellem products, you won’t have these worries.  100% natural, harmless ingredients.

Ecosmartplastics Repellem products don’t even harm the insects and animals it repels; they just, well, REPEL them.

Even the thickest, finest, and most expensive trash bags can not be set outside the night BEFORE the trash truck comes; dogs can smell that feast from miles around.  However, with Ecosmartplastics’ Repellem & Eco-smartbag products, you CAN set your trash outside on the curb the night before because animals simply can not detect the presence of even the stinkiest garbage if it’s inside a sealed Repellem bag.  How nice not to have to rise at dawn to run after the garbage truck with your bags of trash!!

There are more uses than these for Ecosmartplastics’ Repellem & Eco-smartbag products; check this blog each month for updates!  In the meantime, check our archives for all kinds of ways these products can be used.

Many of us have resolved to have a cleaner and greener 2010, and one way to begin is to use EcoSmartPlastics Repellem and Eco-smartbag products!

So many household products these days are made of chemicals created in test tubes in laboratories, and we have to be careful to guard our children and our pets from contact with them.  Not so with EcoSmartPlastics Repellem and Eco-smartbag products!!!

EcoSmarPlastics Repellem and Eco-smartbag products are made of 100% natural ingredients, each ingredient absolutely harmless to all living things.  (Repellem REPELS, it doesn’t kill!)  Your small children are completely safe in a home that uses EcoSmartPlastics Repellem products.  Not only will your home be free of insects; you will not have to worry about babies or toddlers being harmed by contact with dangerous products!  The ingredients in EcoSmart and Repellem are SAFE!!!!

You won’t have to worry about your pets getting into the garbage, either.  With Repellem trash bags, your dogs and cats won’t even know you’ve GOT garbage!  And when you set your full trash bags outdoors, possums and raccoons won’t be able to sense them, either.

Let’s all begin 2010 with a cleaner, greener, SAFER home!

This is the first day of the New Year, which means many of us had or went to a party tonight.  It also means many of us are taking down a Christmas tree today.

After the parties:  Dump all the garbage and trash in a big Repellem trash bag and toss it outside until later.  You don’t have to worry about animals getting into it and scattering it; Ecosmartplastics Repellem products live up to their name: they really do REPEL animals and insects.For the Christmas tree:  If you did like many people and used an extra-large Repellem bag under your tree skirt, disposing of your tree will be a cinch!  Just take off all the ornaments and trim, pull off the skirt, and draw the Repellem bag up around the tree, keeping the needles INSIDE the bag.  No mess, no fuss, and the Repellem bag is strong enough to deal with a tree inside it!  Pick up your tree, arms around the Repellem bag, and toss it outside.  Messy job, finished in minutes with NO mess!

Sleep in this morning, and don’t worry about your garbage bags sitting outside: if you used Ecosmartplastics Repellem bags, nothing will touch them.  And aren’t you glad it was so easy to get your tree out of the living room, with no mess?

EcoSmart’s Repellem products have so many uses; it boggles the mind!

Why not make using only eco-friendly, 100% biodegradable, 100% natural Ecosmartplastics Repellem & Eco-smartbag products one of your resolutions for 2010!

In my “neck of the woods,” there has been no trash pickup at all these past few days.  That means, ALL of the trash and garbage of Christmas has been sitting in bags, waiting.

People who use regular trash bags don’t DARE put the trash outside until the very last minute before pickup because of the dogs, raccoons, possums, and other animals who seem to lie in wait for such opportunities to scatter and feast.

People who use Ecosmartplastics Repellem trash bags can set the trash outside any time they need to, because the 100% natural ingredients in all Repellem products do exactly what the name says:  they REPEL.  Nothing will bother your Ecosmartplastics Repellem bags except a really high wind!

My family’s trash of the past three days is sitting outside on the deck as I type.  It will be removed tomorrow afternoon, but I don’t have to worry about it being torn and scattered at ALL, because I use Ecosmartplastics Repellem trash bags.

I gave my mother some Repellem bags, too, so she is now the only person  on her block who doesn’t have to get up at the crack of dawn tomorrow, to beat the city garbage truck!  She can set her trash out tonight, and she doesn’t have to worry about the neighborhood dogs savaging it.  The dogs can’t even see or smell anything inside a Repellem bag!

Happy Holidays from everyone here at EcoSmart Plastics and Repellem!

Remember, with a Repellem tablecloth or trash bag under your tree skirt, or with a red Repellem-wrapped box mingling with your other gifts, your pets will not bother your Christmas tree, nor will insects attack your real evergreen tree.  Repellem strives to make your home clean and green, and to keep your family safe from insects and vermin.

We here at EcoSmart Plastics and Repellem hope that everyone drives carefully, arrives safely, and has a safe and wonderful holiday!  We thank you for your business, and hope to see more of you!
