Repell-em Blog

Repell-em products are made of 100% natural ingredients, such as lemons, apples, citronella, peppermint, rosemary, cloves, geraniums, and a little mineral oil.  There is not a single drop or dot of anything poisonous, and absolutely NO Deet, in any Repell-em product.

Deet can be dangerous, both to human skin and to the environment.  Deet is poisonous, and hazardous if taken internally.  It’s a pesticide, not a repellent.  It’s made of chemicals.

Repell-em is absolutely harmless, even if your child puts it in his mouth.  Repell-em doesn’t even harm the insects or animals; it just REPELS them!

Smart parents don’t keep dangerous poisons in the house, but with Repell-em products, parents don’t need to worry at all about their children getting into the Repell-em.  It won’t hurt them.  And using Repell-em trash bags, tablecloths, and camping extras will actually help keep your children SAFE, because the insects and animals won’t come near them!

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 have two cats, and keeping them out of the trash used to be an ongoing trial in this house.  They went after the garbage in the kitchen wastebasket constantly, and when the bag was full and I tied it off and put it on the floor before tossing it out on the deck before putting it in the back of the pickup truck before hauling it off to the dump (Are you following me?  You’re not lost, are you?) the cats would bite and tear through the bag to get to the yummy spoiling goodness inside.

Ever since I started using Repell-em trash bags, the cats have left the kitchen trash completely alone.  They don’t smell it and they don’t see it.  This is a wonderful thing for me, because picking up trash and bits of garbage the cats left strewn about on my kitchen floor, and constantly re-bagging the garbage because the cats tore it apart, was really getting old.  REALLY old.

Now, nothing bothers the kitchen trash, and nothing bothers the tied-off trash bags no matter WHERE they are.  Using Repell-em bags in my kitchen not only keeps the animals away from the garbage, it also keep the insects out of my kitchen!

Thank you, Repell-em!

I read in a gardening magazine that putting a brightly-colored cloth on a pole and placing it in the middle and both ends of your garden will keep away the animals.  I’m going to try it this year, because last year, the deer ate almost everything!

However, my “scarecrows” won’t be made of cloth; I’m going to put Repell-em trash bags on poles and let them guard my tomatoes and green peppers.

Not only will the red Repell-em bag, flapping in the wind, keep all the animals away, it will also keep all the bugs away!

P.S.  I threw a Repell-em trash bag, full of corncobs and rib bones, in the back of our pickup truck three days ago, and nothing’s bothered it yet!
