One of our readers has asked me about Repell-em’s ability to really keep moths and weevils out of her home. She’s tired of wasting money by having to throw away infested dog food, flour, etc., and wants to know if Repell-em will really help. Here is my reply to her:
Dear Charlene,
I think my weevils came in with the big 25-pound sack of flour I bought at Sam’s Club. They spread to everything: the cornmeal, the cat food, the rice, pretty much everything that was edible and dry. I tried everything; for a while, bay leaves seemed to work, but they lost their “spark” after a while and the bugs came back.
When I started writing for Repell-em, the product was so new to me, I wasn’t really sure what all it would do besides keep large animals away from your trash, so I did all kinds of experiments myself, right here in my own house.
What I discovered was, that Repell-em was like magic.
Every month, I cut a Repell-em trash bag into squares and place them here and there in my pantry, and INSIDE the bags or cannisters (I tape it to the underside of the cannister lid) and I have not had a single weevil, moth, or any other kind of horrible bug (they’re all horrible if they’re in your house, in my opinion) since. Repell-em is 100% natural, so it won’t harm anything or anyone, and it won’t poison or taint your food. It doesn’t kill, even the bugs, but it drives them away! It really does work. I just got our winter coats out for the season, and they’re as perfect as if I’d stored them at the dry cleaner’s, and it’s because I hung each coat inside a Repell-em trash bag. We’ve got Repell-em in the backs of all our closets – it keeps the moths away, and also the mice!
But those pesky weevils were so icky and nasty and EXPENSIVE (think of the wasted foods!) that I decided to see if Repell-em would work on them, and it DID.
I recommend it. Not because I work for them, because I don’t. I just write for them. I recommend Repell-em because I use it myself and it works. If I didn’t believe in the product, I couldn’t write for it. I believe in it because I use it, every day. And now, I wouldn’t use any other brand. Ever.
Thank you so very much for inquiring.
Sincerely,
–Jane
