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!

Spring is here, and it’s time to hang your heavy winter coats in the closet and forget about them until next winter!

Summer is also the season for moths and other insects that can damage your heavy woolens badly.  There are many ways to keep your winter clothing safe from insects, but most of these methods are expensive, smelly, and often downright dangerous!

Why not just slip a Repell-em trash bag over your winter coat before you hang it up for the summer?  Repell-em trash bags are fantastic suit-bags, for example; I’ve heard from many readers who cover their prom dresses with a Repell-em bag before hanging them away.

It’s also very effective to put a Repell-em bag over the top of folded sweaters before you store the box in the back of the closet or under the bed.

Clothing is expensive, and we certainly don’t want our hard-earned money devoured by moths, silverfish, and other cloth-loving little bugs.

With Repell-em in your closet, that just won’t EVER HAPPEN!

I gave my mother some Repell-em trash bags on Monday, and told her to go ahead and set out her garbage that night, because Tuesday morning is Trash Pickup Day in her neighborhood.

She shared the bags with the neighbors on both sides of her house.  So what we had, on Monday night, was three houses on one side of a street with Repell-em trash bags sitting on the curb in front of each of them.  Mom’s left-hand neighbor’s Repell-em bag was especially pungent because she had a family reunion over the weekend and her Repell-em bag contained a turkey carcass, among other things.

The people across the street from Mom saw their neighbors putting out their trash the night before and decided to do the same.  The only difference was, these people were using ordinary white trash bags.

The next morning, there was trash and garbage all over the block.  The “white bag” neighbors’ trash was EVERYWHERE, and the white bags were in shreds.  On Mom’s side of the street, six red Repell-em bags sat in front of three houses, and the Repell-em trash bags were completely intact.

Mom’s convinced, and so are her neighbors.  None of them has a computer, so when I place my next order, they want in on it.

You should do the same!
