Repell-em Blog

The little girls next door to me have a treehouse, but they weren’t using it this summer.  I asked their mother why, and she said it had wasps in it!

I’m deathly afraid of wasps, but I hated it that those sweet little girls weren’t able to use their treehouse.  There was no way I was going to knock down the papery wasp-house, but I had another plan.  I wasn’t sure it would work: wasps are pretty powerful bugs, but it was worth a try.

So I got a couple of my Repell-em trash bags, wadded them up so they’d “hurl” better, and hurled them both (tied ‘em to a rock!) through the window of that treehouse.  Within seconds a CLOUD of wasps poured out of that little window, and they never came back.

We waited a few days just to make sure, and then my neighbor’s husband climbed into the treehouse and took down the wasps’ former home.

The girls’ mother festooned the treehouse with Repell-em, and the little girls have been playing up there ever since.

The end.

P.S.  I believe that Repell-em products are one of the grandest inventions of the century.  They haven’t failed me yet.  I wasn’t sure they’d repel WASPS, for heaven’s sake, but they did!
