Repell-em Blog

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!

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!

With a real evergreen tree, there will be real insects; it’s just a fact.  Bring that real tree into your house, and the insects will come with it.

One of the best ways to get those bugs off your tree is to use Ecosmartplastics’ Repellem!  Get a Repellem trash bag or tablecloth and cut it into ribbon lengths.  At intervals, all over the tree, tie a festive red Christmas bow and let the streamers hang down.

Talk about killing two birds with one stone!  Your Christmas tree will be a work of art, and you won’t EVER have to worry about insects crawling or flying out of the tree onto a child, or into someone’s food.

The Repellem ribbons will also guarantee that your other pets will not bother your Christmas tree.  Got a cat?  A dog?  You won’t have to worry about leaving your pets alone with your decorated Christmas tree if your tree has been decorated with Ecosmartplastics’ Repellem!

With a piece of Repellem under the tree skirt and Repellem ribbons festooning the tree itself, your home will be all set for a clean, safe, green, insect-free holiday season!  The Ecosmartplastics’ Repellem effects will last all through the season; you won’t need to change the ribbons or underskirt at all!

These two Ecosmartplastics Repellem trash bags are full of turkey carcasses. Both bags have back on my deck since Thursday night.

It is now Sunday, late afternoon, and as you can see, neither bag has been so much as touched by the millions of raccoons and possums and neighbor dogs that frequent my deck. In the past, we couldn’t set a bag of garbage out there for five minutes before its contents were scattered across the yard by wild animals dumpster-diving for the good, smelly stuff that was in there.

Here in southern Indiana, the weather has been in the fifties and sixties these past few days, and I’m pretty sure that the remainders of those two big turkeys didn’t smell all that good to humans after a few hours out there. However, animal and insect “noses” are different, and the usual onslaught of animal and insect hordes just did not appear.

That black cat? She’s been featured on this blog before, totally ignoring the contents of Ecosmartplastics Repellem garbage bags, and even napping on top of them without giving them so much as a swat.

Two trash bags full of Thanksgiving garbage, including the remains of two 19-pound turkeys. No animal even seemed to realize such a treat was sitting out there in full reach. Animals did not see the bags - the unique red color saw to that. Animals did not smell the bags - the unique 100% natural ingredients that make up the bags saw to that. No animals even seem to realize the bags were there, well within plain sight and easy dragging.

That’s because Ecosmart Repellem trash bags can not be seen or smelled by animals; therefore, animals leave them alone. Ecosmartplastics Repellem products are good for anything indoors or out - you’ll have no problems with insects or animals, including mice, moths, ants, spiders (I know spiders aren’t insects, but they react to Repellem like insects!) roaches, gnats, or pretty much anything that would hang, uninvited, in or out of your home.

Just look at those two red Ecosmartplastics Repellem trash bags. Since Thursday night, they’ve been sitting there. NOTHING has bothered them in the least. Nothing has even tried.  Millie, the black cat, isn’t even interested.

Proof positive! Ecosmartplastics Repellem products rock!

I post a picture of my Christmas tree here, every year.  That’s because it’s an EcosmartPlastics Repellem tree!

This is my Christmas tree, in my living room.  It’s covered with all kinds of ornaments, swinging to and fro, playing music, and offering temptation to my two cats like you would not BELIEVE.

This is our third Christmas with the cats. Last year was the first year we DIDN’T have problems with cats and a Christmas tree - two years ago, we had so much trouble with the cats climbing on the tree, batting things off the tree, and generally making the tree their own, that we almost gave up and took it down.

Last year, however, was the first year I put a Repellem tablecloth under the tree skirt.  You can’t really see it this year, except for a little bit in the front, but underneath that tree skirt is a full-size EcoSmartPlastics Repellem tablecloth.

Two years ago, the cats went berserk over the tree and almost took it down.  Last year, we put a Repellem tablecloth under the skirt and when the tree was up and the cats came back inside,  they took one look and made a mad run for the tree.

When they got close to it, they stopped short, sniffed, turned around, and walked calmly away. They never went near the Christmas tree all the rest of the season.

This year, it’s as if there were no tree at all in the living room.  The cats pay it no heed whatsoever.

I know why, too.

It’s the Repellem under the skirt.  It will keep your cats, and your dogs, and all insects away from your Christmas tree.  Just replace the Repellem approximately every three weeks.  You’ll be able to go to work knowing your tree will still be standing when you get home.

I highly recommend this little trick for YOUR Christmas tree.  As I said above, your cats won’t bother it, and neither will your dogs.  If you have a real tree, you won’t get any bugs on or in it, either.  If you are Chevy Chase, you won’t have to worry about squirrels.

There are all kinds of holiday uses for Repellem products.  Just be careful not to let any kind of candle or flame get near Repellem.  Plastic melts, you know.

I’m so happy with Repellem under my Christmas tree!  And when Mama’s happy, everybody’s happy.

It seems as though every day, more and more stores are carrying Ecosmartplastics’ Repellem & Ecosmartbag products!  That’s because. . . they ARE!

In fact, The Vitamin Shoppe has Ecosmartplastics’ Repellem & Ecosmartbag Dog Poop Bags ON SALE right now!

This is one of  our most popular products; it’s against the law in most cities to just “leave it,” you know, and if you use our dog poop bags, you won’t smell it!

So, the next time you take Fido for a walk, be sure to carry along an Ecosmartplastics’ Repellem brand dog poop bag with you.  You won’t BELIEVE how convenient and easy they are to use! The bags are thick and strong; no chance of “anything” touching your skin!

And, as I told you above, they’re on sale right now at The Vitamin Shoppe for only $7.49 for forty bags!  What a great deal!

Ahh, spring.  The official first day of spring is this coming Friday, the 20th, you know.  When the spring weather begins, it stirs up my blood and makes me want to . . . do experiements with Repellem trash bags again!

So, on Friday, the 20th - the first day of spring - I’m going to put a bag of smelly garbage, in an EcoSmart Repellem trash bag,  out on my deck again, to see if the animals will still ignore it.

Last year, remember, the animals acted as if they couldn’t even smell or see the Repellem trash bags, even when they were stuff full of EXTREMELY smelly trash.  Sometimes, animals build up immunities to things, so on Friday, I’ll put another Repellem bag out there and take its picture, and report back to you all next Monday.

My neighbors think I’m kind of weird, to take pictures of my garbage bags, but when I remind them about the EcoSmart Repellem bags that they so love to borrow from me - ahem! - they remember that EcoSmart Repellem trash bags are incredible, amazing, AWESOME trash bags, and they offer to help me with my experiments.

The people next door have small children AND dogs, so I’ll probably be over there taking some pictures of THEIR garbage this spring, too.

Why, is that unusual?

I’m not eligible to enter, but if I won, I’d probably take my prize money out on the Repellem trash bags.  I absolutely love them; they keep my house free of insects and mice - completely - and that includes clothes moths and those nasty weevils that get in flour and dry foods.  My cats have never had a single flea, either.

Then again, I do love those Repellem tableclothes; with one of those on my patio table, we can sit out there as long as we want, and not a single fly, gnat, or mosquito will come near.  The lightning bugs don’t seem to be affected, but that’s a GOOD thing!  I love fireflies.

My sister, on the other hand, says she would use her winnings to get a lot of Dog Poop Bags.  I have to giggle at that word, but she says Repellem dog poop bags are the best in the universe, and after she scoops up the poop and puts it in those Repellem bags, she can’t smell it at ALL.

When YOU win, you can “spend” your winnings right here on anything you want!  Once you’re used EcoSmart Repellem products, you’ll never even be tempted to use anything else.

You’ve got until Valentine’s Day - February 14 - to enter.  We’ll draw a name out of a hat that weekend, and announce the winner on Monday, February 16!!!  Maybe it will be. . . . YOU!

I used to buy trash bags at WalMart, or K-Mart, or Target, and I bought whatever was on sale.  I had no brand loyalty at all.

For a little over a year, however, I haven’t purchased any trash bags at a store at ALL.  On sale, or not, I don’t care.  There is no trash bag sold at these stores that I want.  Not any more.

In my home, we use EcoSmart Repellem products.  Repellem is the only trash bag I will ever use, now that I know and understand their superiority. 

 Back when I used Hefty, or Glad, or some other brand of trash bag, I thought the only use for a trash bag was for, well, trash.  Even with just that one use, those brands of trash bags could never withstand raccoons, or possums, or even the family pets.  No matter how tightly tied up these trash bags might be, animals could smell what was inside, and could easily claw through them and scatter the garbage all over the yard.  I hated that.

Now, with Repellem trash bags, not only are the animals unable to smell or sense the trash, but the Repellem bags are much stronger and thicker than Glad or Hefty bags.  There really is no comparison at all; Repellem is far superior to any other brand.

Besides being great for trash, though, Repellem products can be used in many other ways as well.  Remember:  Repellem products not only repel animals; they also repel insects!  Since I started using Repellem, there have been no mice, or moths, or cockroaches, or gnats, or weevils in my house.  I live out in the country, so this is not a minor thing; I’ve used a LOT of different products to try to keep these things away, but nothing ever worked as well as Repellem products.

Repellem products are also completely non-poisonous - they are perfectly safe to use around children.  EcoSmart Repellem products are made of 100% natural ingredients, are biodegradable, and since I’ve been using them, I feel as if I’m helping to save the earth.

EcoSmart Repellem products are available in some stores, but I order mine from the Repellem website.   I’m a computer person, and it’s just easier for me. 

I will never use any trash bag but EcoSmart Repellem.  Ever.
