Repell-em Blog

This summer has been hotter than. . . usual, and we humans have spent as much of our time as possible indoors instead of outside. No cooling breezes, no soothing rain. . . it’s been an unusual and dangerous summer for people.

If you’re an insect, however, the summer has been perfection. Many bugs prosper in the heat, and our cats and dogs have required more than the usual amount of flea-and-tick treatments.
Inside where it’s cool might be more comfortable for people, but the bugs are quite aware that inside is where the opportunities are. Our clothing, our bodies, our carpets, our furniture, and most especially, our kitchens, are seen as big playgrounds for the huge populations of this summer’s insects!

The ant population, for example, is big in any season and circumstance, but right now, the ants are everywhere. EVERYWHERE. In our house, for example, the ants have pretty much taken over the kitchen sink and countertops, and nothing we tried seemed to put a dent in it. We used sprays, and poisons, and powders, and natural “green” solutions. We called three different exterminators. The ants came back every time.

Then I took a few Repellem trash bags and put them behind the stove, under the sink, and behind the refrigerator. I cut up a few Repellem bags and put the pieces here and there in the pantry, silverware drawer, and cabinets.

As I type, there are no ants anywhere to be seen. Repellem repelled them.

It works, folks. Repellem products are better than anything else on the market today, and believe me, we tried everything this summer. Nothing works like a Repellem product.
