All about the Repell-em garbage bags and tablecloths

Archive for the 'No cockroaches' Category

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!

Your child’s safety is the most important issue in the world, and while we can’t keep our children locked in a tower or sealed in a bubble, there are many things we can do to help insure that nothing dangerous touches our children’s lives.

Outdoors, bugs are no big deal.  After all, they were here first!  Bugs belong outside, and when we see ants in the grass, crickets in the shrubbery, or spiders building webs among the fence posts, we think nothing of it.  They BELONG there!

Indoors, however, is another story altogether!  We do NOT want any bugs, however harmless they might be, in our homes.  The very thought of insects crawling on our babies in their cribs makes us sicken with horror.  And yet, bug sprays and most repellants are too toxic to use near or around babies and children.  The house might be cleaner than Mr. Clean’s house, but the insects will still find a way.

That’s why all families should use Repell-em products.  With Repell-em, there will be no bugs in the house.  No spiders.  No ants.  No moths.  No roaches.  No bedbugs.  No gnats.  No waterbugs.  With Repell-em in the house, the insect world will stay where it belongs:  outside.

With Repell-em products in your house, there will be no insects crawling on your baby in the night.  Or on YOU, either!  With Repell-em in your house,  your babies, your children, and YOU, will all be safe from maurauding insects.

So put Repell-em trash bags in all of your wastebaskets!  Put a Repell-em tablecloth underneath that beautiful holiday tablecloth!  And don’t worry about toxins, either; Repell-em products are made of 100% natural ingredients, completely and 100% harmless and biodegradeable, too!

A Repell-em household is a cleaner and safer household.

P.S.  Spiders aren’t really insects, of course.  They’re arthropods, like crabs and lobsters.  I have no actual proof that Repell-em repels crabs and lobsters, but it wouldn’t surprise me in the least if it did!  Repell-em does a bust on spiders, though.  You can depend on it!

Bugs love your vegetable bins, and will often make their homes down in the bottom, underneath the potatoes or onions.  We don’t usually notice these insects until we reach into the bin for a potato and stick our hand right into a nest.  What can you do about these insects?  You can’t spray, or use most insect-repelling or killing means, because we’re talking about your family’s FOOD here!

Why not do what I’ve been doing, and line all of your vegetable bins with Repell-em?  I use Repell-em tablecloths for so many different things, and lining my kitchen bins is one of them.  The red tablecloth looks beautiful, just barely showing around the top of the bins, and there is absolutely nothing in any Repell-em product that is dangerous in any way, so it’s perfectly safe for your family’s food to touch Repell-em.

Remember:  Repell-em products REPEL; they don’t kill!

So, this winter, reach into your potato bin without fear of touching anything “icky.”  With Repell-em products, your family is safer in many ways.

Family safety is one of Repell-em’s primary concerns, and our products do their very best to KEEP your family safe!

It’s important, in this day and age, to be as environmentally conscious as possible.  Our planet is overcrowded, and many of the people seem to be doing their best to make it as dirty as possible.  Green-conscious people are doing their best to counteract the actions of those who don’t seem to care about the planet, and one thing we can do to help is to use as many environmentally-friendly products as possible.

One of the best environmentally-friendly products is Repell-em.  Made of 100% natural and 100% recyclable materials, Repell-em products are good for the earth, and completely fulfill their promises of excellent service while helping “save the planet” at the same time.

Repell-em products help keep your house and all who live within it safe from insects and intruding animals.  This means that if you use Repell-em products, your home will never be invaded by mice, fleas, or cockroaches.  Think what this means, especially if there are infants or children living in your home!

With Repell-em, your cat or dog will never tear open your garbage!  Repell-em will even keep the fleas off your pets!  You will never have to be leery of putting your baby down on the carpet, for Repell-em will keep everything near it insect-free!

People who live in a Repell-em house can breathe easier, knowing that with Repell-em, everything in the house is cleaner, safer, and more healthy than in a house without Repell-em.

An infant’s crib will frequently contain, let us say, “bodily fluids.”  A child’s room is often full of half-eaten snacks and crumbs, no matter how often we clean it.  This means that insects will often be found in a child’s room, because bugs go where the food is.

The very thought of insects crawling around in our child’s room, on his/her toys, in his/her bed, directly on the child, makes us tremble with horror; we want our child’s room to be the very cleanest and safest in the entire house, after all.

A child will be a child, no matter what, but we can help keep his/her room bug-free by putting a Repell-em trash bag in the wastebasket, and by hanging a Repell-em bag in the closet.  Many parents put a wadded-up Repell-em bag under the bed to help keep the bugs away.

Your child’s safety is the number one concern in your home, as it should be.  Using Repell-em products is one easy way to help KEEP your child safe.

I just set my trash out on the deck - four bags of garbage, sitting out on the deck, way out in the country, right next to a rather large woods.

Ordinarily, the smell of the garbage would lure every possum, raccoon, skunk, deer, fox, and insect to my patio door and I would spend an hour or more the next morning picking up the remains.

But now I use Repell-em trash bags, and I don’t have to worry about animals or bugs at all any more.  My trash will be, in the morning, exactly as it is right now.

Repell-em trash bags are red, which animals can’t see well, and they are made of 100% natural ingredients, the combination of which repels almost all animals and insects completely.

I love you, Repell-em products.

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.
