Repell-em Blog

We went on a picnic today.  Ordinarily my husband doesn’t care for picnics, because he can’t stand the bugs.  Now that we have Repell-em tablecloths, though, that concern is gone and we’ve actually gone on several really fun picnics this summer.

A Repell-em tablecloth not only keeps the flying bugs, like mosquitoes and gnats, away from you and from your food, it also keeps the ants and other crawling insects away.  A picnic without ants!  Can you imagine?

Well, if you have a Repell-em tablecloth on your picnic table, you don’t have to imagine.  You’ll see for yourself.

Don’t worry about the ingredients in the Repell-em tablecloth harming your skin or your food, either.  Repell-em products are made of 100% natural ingredients, all of which are absolutely harmless.

I have three cats, and I’m not exactly Martha Stewart.  I keep a giant bag of dry cat food in my kitchen, leaning against the wall in a corner.

I used to have a lot of problems with ants in that bag.  Now, however, I have no ants, and I can tell you exactly why.

There are no ants in the giant bag of cat food in my kitchen because there is a little piece of wadded-up Repell-em bag in the giant bag of cat food.

Remember, Repell-em products are made of 100% natural ingredients - completely and absolutely harmless to all living things - and contact with any kind of food, human or animal, will not contaminate the food or harm anyone in any way.

Bugs are creepy in any season, and in summer bugs are even more noticeable, but with Repell-em products, you can even keep the bugs out of your pets’ food supply.

With the wadded-up Repell-em scrap in that sack, the cats themselves won’t tear the bag open as they used to do.

Don’t worry about your cat’s not wanting to get near the food to eat it after it’s removed from the bag, either.  A few minutes in the bowl, and your cat will devour its dinner like there’s no tomorrow.

No ants in the pet food.  Awesome.

From reader/commenter Ellen comes these fantastic hints for using your Repell-em bags:

Ellen tell us that a fellow camper gave them some Repell-em bags (she calls them “magnificent garbage bags!”) and she put one in their campsite’s outside area, and the other she opened up and put under the non-skid mat outside the door, down the three steps and onto the ground. Ellen reminded us that having that mat on the ground is often just asking for trouble, but she got tired of sweeping and mopping up the linoleum in her new travel trailer.

According to Ellen, she had tried every anti-insect remedy known to mankind, but nothing worked until she tried the Repell-em bags.

She informed us that the ants and “other creepy-crawlies” would not cross the Repell-em line, and the inside of her new camper was bug-free.

Ellen went on to suggest that a piece of Repell-em bag tucked into a pocket or tucked into shoelaces might make evening walks more comfortable and could be reused as ties around the water and sewage hoses as a little extra “security.”

We here at Repell-em Products thank you, Ellen, for entering our contest and for giving us examples of how you use our product. You’ll be getting a sample in the mail, and perhaps you’ll even WIN!

Speaking of the Repell-em Contest, today is the last day to enter. At midnight tonight, the ballot box will be closed, and within the next few days, all entrants should expect to get an email from Jane at One by One Media (that’s me!) asking for a mailing address for your freebies.

On Wednesday of next week, we will email the winners and post their names and prizes right here on this blog.

Stay tuned!

And Ellen, thank you again. You’re awesome.
