All about the Repell-em garbage bags and tablecloths

Archive for the 'No ants' Category

Don’t laugh!  EcoSmart Repellem trash bags are an amazingly useful baby shower gift!  Repellem products keep the baby’s nursery area completely free of insects and mice, and are absolutely 100% harmless, recyclable, biodegradable and, even though the bags themselves are red, completely GREEN!  EcoSmart Repellem bags are made of 100% natural ingredients, and there is nothing in them than can harm your baby in any way.

Even the cleanest home will have an occasional visiting fly, mosquito, gnat, ladybug, moth, weevil, or mouse once in a while.  A home that uses EcoSmart Repellem products, however, will NOT have these problems!  Repellem products don’t kill the insects or rodents; they simply repel them.  Your home will not be a welcoming location for insects or rodents, with Repellem products on the job!

When you set your Repellem bags outside to await the garbage truck, you won’t have to worry about neighborhood or stray dogs tearing them open and scattering your family’s trash all over the streets, either.  Repellem bags simply can’t be seen or smelled by most animals, unlike all other brands of garbage bags.

Why not give new parents a box of EcoSmart Repellem garbage bags, then?  People who wrapped up little statues, banks, picture frames, and photo albums might giggle, but after you explain to them what EcoSmart Repellem products will do for a home, I’m willing to bet that everybody will run home and order some for themselves.

When you give the gift of EcoSmart Repellem, you give the gift of cleanliness and safety.  How could that fourth wrapped diaper bag even BEGIN to compete with that?

Order some EcoSmart Repellem products NOW, why don’tcha?

It’s spring cleaning time, and that means going over your home with a fine-tooth comb, and making sure everything is spic-and-span.  This also means, although people don’t usually come right out and say so, that it’s time to check your home for potential rodent and insect entrances and nests.

After you’ve finished with your spring cleaning,  make sure you put some EcoSmart Repellem products in each room, to KEEP those rodents and insects out of your house.  A Repellem trash bag in each wastebasket and trash can, a Repellem trash bag or tablecloth on the floor of each closets behind the shoes, a Repellem trash bag under the sofa cushions, a Repellem trash bag in the pantry to keep out the weevils, a Repellem trash bag under every sink and in every cabinet. . . you get the general idea. Remember to change the bags every two or three weeks, or when you can’t smell them any more.  (They smell really good!)

Keep your house safe, clean, and green with EcoSmart Repellem products. A household that uses EcoSmart Repellem products is safer for babies and small children, as well as safer for everyone else, and a household that uses EcoSmart Repellem products is cleaner than a house that doesn’t use them, because EcoSmart households are rodent and insect FREE.

March is such a very “iffy” month; a typical March weather report for a few days might look like this:  snow, thunderstorm, single digits, seventies, blooming crocuses, blizzard, teens, thunderstorm, tornado, single digits, high sixties, tulips, blizzard, bright sunshine. . . . you get the picture.  There’s just no consistency!

People aren’t the only living things that are confused by March weather.  Animals and insects are confused, too!  Bright sunshine makes bugs desperate to live on our warm windowpanes.  Blizzards makes mice and insects crazy to get inside our houses.  Raccoons and possums start hanging around our decks, hoping for a buffet of filled trash bags.

How can we deal with this craziness?  EASY!  Use EcoSmart Repellem products, and there will be no insects or unwelcome animals in your home, or even NEAR your home! 

No raccoons.  No possums.  No moths.  No silverfish.  No ants.  No roaches.  No mice.

Use EcoSmart Repellem products, and you’re not only helping the environment, you’re also keeping your home clean, green, and pest-proof.  Absolutely.

We’re buried in snow, here in southern Indiana, and my next-door neighbor finally managed to break a path to my door.  I figured that she was going to ask to borrow milk, or bread, since she has two small daughters and hasn’t been able to get out of her driveway for a week now.  But no, she didn’t need food.

With all the snow outside, the mice are running for warmth and cover, and her house had been infiltrated!  She wanted to know if I had a couple of Repellem trash bags she could borrow.  I did, and she trudged back through the snow to her house.  Once she puts those Repellem bags in her kitchen, the mice will all leave.

I haven’t noticed a single mouse in my house since the day I first started using Repellem trash bags.  No mice, no ants, no roaches, no flies, no fleas on the cats, no waterbugs, no weevils in the flour. . . .  I’m telling you, EcoSmart Repellem products REALLY WORK!

So.  Enter the Repellem contest.  Keep your home cleaner and safer and greener with EcoSmart Repellem products.

The contest’s prizes are fantastic.

I know I’ve posted about putting a Repellem bag under your Christmas tree skirt before, but as more and more of you are putting up your holiday decorations and trees now, the advice bears repeating.  I have indoor cats who can’t resist swinging, climbing, and batting at pretty much anything and everything, and yet, these lively jumping cats have left my Christmas tree completely alone.  It’s as if they can’t even see or smell it.

That’s because I put a Repellem trash bag under the tree skirt.

Repell-em really does live up to its name.  It doesn’t hurt or kill; it simply REPELS.  I feel safe in claiming that a Repellem product will repel anything the size of an average dog or smaller, all the way down to fleas and gnats.  I’m not ruling out Repellem working on larger animals, but I haven’t TRIED Repellem on polar bears or kangaroos yet.  I have, however, tried it on dogs the size of large collies, raccoons, possums, and cats of all sizes.  Oh, and DEER!  Repellem kept the deer out of my garden ALL SUMMER LONG!  Repellem worked on all of these animals, and let us sit out on our deck without having to swat mosquitoes, flies, or gnats all summer long, too.  Repellem also kept the wasps away, even when we had lemonade out there!

My mother has lined her fireplace mantle - well away from the flame or heat - with holiday-looking red Repellem tablecloths, folded, and her cats haven’t jumped up there to disturb or knock over her angel collection or little Christmas trains yet.  They won’t, either.

Animals can’t sense a Repellem product; therefore, anything you’re protecting with a Repellem product won’t be sensed, either.

Your pets will leave your holiday decorations alone if you just put some Repellem in there with them.

Come and look at my Christmas tree.  No cat could resist it.  And yet, with Repellem, they do!

Today is Labor Day, but insects and other pests do not take holidays.  In fact, holidays are fantastic times to use Repell-em products, because on holidays there are always more people and more food and more, well, garbage.

Many people like to picnic on Labor Day, and what is a picnic without bees, ants, flies, and gnats?  Put a Repell-em tablecloth on the picnic table and put a Repell-em trash bag in the wastebasket and you’ll not see any of the usual picnic pests.

Won’t it be wonderful not to have to brush the bugs off your slice of watermelon before you eat it?

You don’t have to worry about the ingredients in Repell-em, either.  There is nothing in a Repell-em product that is in any way harmful to a human being.  Repell-em products are made of 100% natural ingredients.

So put a Repell-em tablecloth on your picnic table and a Repell-em trash bag in the garbage can and you’ll be all set to have a bug-free, pest-free Labor Day picnic.

Try not to eat too much.  You’ve got a volleyball game in a few minutes.  :)

We went on a picnic today.  Ordinarily my husband doesn’t care for picnics, because he can’t stand the bugs.  Now that we have Repell-em tablecloths, though, that concern is gone and we’ve actually gone on several really fun picnics this summer.

A Repell-em tablecloth not only keeps the flying bugs, like mosquitoes and gnats, away from you and from your food, it also keeps the ants and other crawling insects away.  A picnic without ants!  Can you imagine?

Well, if you have a Repell-em tablecloth on your picnic table, you don’t have to imagine.  You’ll see for yourself.

Don’t worry about the ingredients in the Repell-em tablecloth harming your skin or your food, either.  Repell-em products are made of 100% natural ingredients, all of which are absolutely harmless.

I love you, Repell-em!!!!

We eat outside a lot in the summer.  This used to be both wonderful and terrible; the wonderful part was being together and eating lots of great BBQ and corn on the cob, and playing volleyball with butter still dripping down our elbows.  The terrible part was dealing with the swarms and hordes of insects, that loved it when we ate out, too, and for all the same reasons.

Now, however, I use Repell-em tablecloths and Repell-em trash bags, both indoors and out.  We still have great BBQ and corn on the cob, and we still play volleyball with butter still dripping down our elbows.   What’s different this summer is the fact that we no longer have to deal with any insects.  Not a one.  Nope.  None.  Zip.  Zero.  NO BUGS!

Repell-em products really do what they promise they’ll do.  They do it well, too.

I can’t even imagine having a picnic without Repell-em products now.

Bonus?  Just cut one edge off your Repell-em tablecloth and cut it into segments.  Tie a segment of Repell-em around each person’s wrist and ankle, and send them off to play in the great summertime outdoors.  The bugs won’t bother them.

You’ve got Repell-em’s word on that.

I’ve only got four Repell-em trash bags left, so I need to order some more TONIGHT!  Oh, I’m not desperate yet, and there’s an almost-full box of Hefty bags under the sink, but I don’t use any other brand but Repell-em since I discovered how good they are.  I use the lesser brands of bags to line the cat’s litter box, but they’re not good enough for my family, in the kitchen, especially.

In my kitchen, I use only Repell-em bags.  They’re thick, strong, and they repel insects and animals.  Their fragrance, so repellent to bugs and raccoons, is like fresh potpourri to people.  When I walk into my kitchen in the morning and smell that fragrance, I know that Repell-em has been working all night long, keeping my family safe from vermin and insects.  This is a good feeling, folks.

So off I go, to order more Repell-em bags.  I especially like the 33-gallon garbage bags.  I use them in my kitchen wastebasket, and I love it that the bags are so big, I can also stuff more in them even after I remove the bag from the wastebasket.  I buy the kitchen-sized Repell-em bags for other rooms in the house, but in my kitchen, there’s always something else to put in the trash after I lift the bag out, so I like the bigger bags in there.

Try Repell-em trash bags.  You’ll love them, too.

I live out in the country, and we have to take all of our trash to the dump, ourselves.  This means that unless we drive to the dump every day, there will almost always be a sack (or two)  (or three) of trash sitting out on the deck.

Until we discovered Repell-em trash bags, this meant that nearly every day, we spent fifteen or so minutes crawling around picking up our trash, because when you live out in the country and set a bag of smelly delights out on the deck, you’re really just asking for it.  The possums, raccoons, mice, and even the deer will come running, and because they can see the white plastic and smell whatever’s inside so clearly, you’re fighting a losing battle.

HOWEVER, with Repell-em bags, it’s quite a different story!  Animals can’t see the red bags, and they can’t smell whatever might be inside them.  They don’t get close enough to really even try, either, because the combination of various natural ingredients that make up the Repell-em magic honestly live up to their name:  the animals are genuinely REPELLED.

In other words, I can set three or four Repell-em bags full of garbage, out on the deck, right by the woods, overnight, and overnight again, and nothing will bother them.

When I tell you that I will never buy any other kind of trash bag, I’m not exaggerating, not the least bit.  Repell-em trash bags are perfection.  PERFECTION.  Well, the animals and bugs don’t like them, but I sure do!
