All about the Repell-em garbage bags and tablecloths

In many areas, it’s time to get those winter clothes and coats out of the closet and onto our backs!

I packed all those things in Ecosmart Plastics and Repellem bags so I wouldn’t have to worry about moths, and when I unpacked them this weekend, I found them all to be in perfect condition.  Our winter coats, sweaters, heavy corduroys. . . all our winter things – all in great shape and none of them with that “musty” smell stored woolens often have.

Unless they’ve been packed and stored with Repellem, that is.

I also unpacked my Christmas tree skirt – it’s got wool in it, but since I rolled it up and wrapped it in a Repellem back last year, it’s in perfect condition, too.

Clothing stored in Repellem, or with a piece of Repellem, always come out, at the beginning of next season, in great shape.  I’ve been using Repellem for over six years now, and I’ve never had an exception to this.  No matter what you’re storing – clothing, blankets, holiday things – if you use Repellem in their storage, you’ll have a perfect product when you unwrap them again.

Don’t forget to put a fresh Ecosmart Plastics and Repellem bag under your tree skirt.  It keeps the bugs away, yes, but it also keeps your dog and cat from coming near your tree.

More than spring bulbs are waking up and presenting themselves for our approval; the bugs are making themselves known, too! I’m sure you’ve already noticed that bugs and spiders are awake and trying desperately to get where the easy food is: our homes.

It’s extra important in the springtime to be sure we don’t leave food out where it will only look like a large free buffet to ants, gnats, flies, roaches, and other lovely creatures we don’t invite into our houses; they gatecrash! But we can’t ever clean a house thoroughly enough to keep out the bugs; there is, however, an easy fix for the annual springtime insect invasion. EcoSmart Plastics and Repellem products.

As long as there’s a Repellem trash bag in every wastecan, a few strips of Repellem in every kitchen cabinet – don’t worry about your food, as Repellem products are 100% natural and completely harmless – you won’t have to worry about the bugs. Bugs will stay as far away from a Repellem house as possible.

So will the spiders.

I used to have to take down and clean all the light fixtures in spring and summer, at least once a week, to dump out the dead bugs. Now, since I’ve used Repellem in my kitchen and in all the closets in the house, I never have to take down the light fixtures. I’m short, and it was a big annoying deal, and it’s so nice NOT to have to do that any more.

Let me sum up. Warm weather is here, or it’s coming soon (Depends on your location, of course) and if you spread the Repellem products around your house, you’ll never have to deal with bugs.

Oh, and those winter coats hanging in the closet, waiting for next winter? Just cover them with a Repellem trash bag and the moths won’t even know they’re there.

EcoSmart Plastics and Repellem products are the best on the market today. My house is proof. Prove it with your house, too.

Even though the snow is still coming down in many areas of the country, the sun is shining more and more and the spring bulbs are trying to punch through the cold soil in many other places.  No matter where you hang your hat, though, it will soon be time to hang your winter coats away, too.

For the past several years, I’ve been storing our heavy winter coats in individual EcoSmartPlastics and Repellem trash bags, and we have never seen a single moth in my house.

The horror of opening a closet door and seeing a handful of those tiny clothes moths flutter out will not happen here.  My Repellem trash bags will not allow it!

So go ahead and pack away your winter woolens and wrap your package in Repellem trash bags or tablecloths; you’ll save both money and aggravation.  Your home will be cleaner, too, with no insects, living or dead, to mess with.  Your home will also be safer and greener, as EcoSmartPlastics and Repellem products are 100% biodegradable, and made of 100% safe and natural ingredients.  No poisons or dangerous chemicals whatsover.

Next fall, when you take your winter woolens out again, they will be intact.  Nothing wrapped in Repellem will ever become a dish on a moth or weevil’s buffet!

As for those bedbugs so many people are seeing and getting upset over. . . . I’ve never seen a single bedbug in my house.  I think they’re scared of Repellem products, too.

A household that uses EcoSmart Plastics and Repellem products doesn’t have to worry about bedbugs, or weevils, or moths.  Oh my, indeed!With a Repellem tablecloth or trashbag in each closet, there will be no moths.With just a little strip of Repellem on each pantry shelf, there will be no weevils.  Your flour, cornmeal, etc. will always be clean and safe from contamination.With a Repellem tablecloth or trashbag between your mattress and box springs, you will never have to worry about bedbugs.  While you’re standing in your bedroom, in fact, it would be good to hang a piece of Repellem product over a hangar in the closet, as well.  Your coats woolens are safe, when Repellem is on the job.A home that uses EcoSmart Repellem products is safe from invading insects or vermin, which also means that a home that uses Repellem products will be much cleaner and safer for small children than a home that doesn’t use our products.With EcoSmart Repellem products, there is no need to use poisons or sprays that render surfaces and floors unsafe for babies to crawl around on them.  Your foods are also safe to eat, with a Repellem product in the pantry protecting them.Ever since my family discovered EcoSmart Plastics and Repellem products, our home has seemed so much cleaner, so much safer, and so much more free of invading insects and vermin.

We read about bedbugs in novels about pioneers. We read about bedbugs being found in unkempt hotel beds. We read about bedbugs in OTHER people’s homes but never ours.

The fact is, however, that bedbugs are back, and they’ve brought reinforcements the likes and numbers of which have never been seen before. Bedbugs are being found in schools, offices, hospitals, daycare, inns, hotels, motels . . . some of the cleanest-looking places in the world are finding bedbugs!

We usually associate bedbugs with, well, beds, but they have other places they love to hide, too. Your clothes and shoes, for example. Your coat closet. Your boots. Your mittens. Your towels, and linen closets. Your drains and electrical outlets. Your baseboards. Blankets. Pillows. Matresses.

Most charitable places no longer accept anything that’s upholstered any more, because bedbugs love your chairs, and sofas. They love your carpets.

They love your car, and your baby’s carseat.

They love your kitchen cabinets. They dance in your dishes when you’re not looking. They scamper among your silverware when the drawer is closed.

My community has been notified of several infestations, but in my house, we haven’t noticed any bedbugs, at least not yet. I have no scientific conclusion to draw, but I do know this: There are EcoSmartPlastics and Repellem bags in all of my closets and cabinets. There are Repellem bags between my mattress and box springs. Repellem bags hang in all of my closets, and there are wadded strips of Repellem bags in all of my drawers.

When I packed away my Christmas decorations and trees, everything was placed in a large Repellem trash bag and securely tied. The sweet, pleasant fragrance of Repellem permeates my house today; it smells better than many expensive candles.

I credit EcoSmartPlastics and Repellem products for my home’s total lack of bedbugs. Oh, and there are no roaches, ants, weevils, or moths here, either. No mice. And when I set the trash out on the deck, it’s completely unmolested.

There is no way I would EVER use another kind of trash bag in my home again. EcoSmartPlastics and Repellem products have won my loyalty, 100%, and everylasting.

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.

Summer might be be here officially yet, but it’s here, all the same.  Just ask the insects!

It’s time to get out a couple of EcoSmart Repellem trash bags, cut them up, and put the pieces in your cabinets and cupboards.    This will keep away the ants, weevils, roaches, and any other bug that might otherwise think your food storage places would be good dwelling places.

It’s also time to throw an EcoSmart Repellem bag in each clothes closet or clothing storage bureau or bag in your home.  Those folded winter woolens in the bin under your bed would be a perfect hangout for insects this summer.  Don’t let that happen to your family’s good clothing!

All you have to do is put an EcoSmart Repellem product of some kind in each storage bin, and you’re protected from all insects!

It even keeps moths away from your family’s woolens!

Many parents securely fasten a strip of Repellem plastic UNDERNEATH their child’s mattress to make sure insects don’t crawl into the crib and onto the child in the night.  HOWEVER, IF YOU DO THIS, BE SURE IT’S A SMALL STRIP OF REPELLEM, NOT A COMPLETE BAG, AND MAKE SURE THE STRIP IS FASTENED SECURELY.  DO NOT PUT IT ON TOP OF THE CHILD’S MATTRESS, UNDER THE SHEET!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AND BE SURE YOU USE A VERY SMALL STRIP!  EcoSmart Repellem products will not harm your child if touched or tasted, but it is vitally important to keep all plastic bags away from our children for suffocation reasons.

If you use EcoSmart Repellem products throughout your home this summer, you’re assured that no bugs will want to make YOUR home THEIR home.

I’ve done this for a couple of years now, and we haven’t seen a single ant, moth, weevil, or roach inside the house yet.  And I live WAY out in the country, in bugland!

EcoSmart Repellem products are superior to any other trash bag or tablecloth, and comparable in price.  They keep harmful, dangerous insects, vermin, and animals away from your children’s toys, food, playing spaces, and beds, without a single hazardous poison or other ingredient.  EcoSmart Repellem products are made of 100% natural, recyclable ingredients, so when you use them, you are not only keeping your children and your home cleaner and greener and safer, you are also helping to save the planet!

You can purchase EcoSmart Repellem products right here on the Repellem website, and now, you can also buy your EcoSmart Repellem products at your local Vitamin Shoppe – and at a discount, too!

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.
