Repell-em Blog

Tired of giving the same kind of gift year after year? Well, why not depart from tradition somewhat this time, and give your family and friends something that they will not only USE, but also benefit by?

Ecosmart Plastics and Repellem products will help keep your loved ones’ homes or businesses cleaner, safer, and free from insects and vermin!

Repellem trash bags are a fabulous gift for a daycare director, or your child’s teacher, for example. Our trash bags will help ensure that small children can crawl and play SAFELY on the floor, and that even areas that are hard to keep clean - small children do that, you know - you won’t have to worry about ants, roaches, or mice.

Another great quality of Repellem bags is their safety; the bags are made of 100% recyclable materials, and are also 100% safe, even if a child tries to eat one!

Here is a complete list of what Repellem bags are composed of, in case you’re wondering.

A box or two - or a case - of Repellem trash bags would be a much-appreciated gift for anyone who doesn’t really want bugs or mice, and isn’t that everybody you know?

It’s officially spring, but Mother Nature doesn’t seem to realize it yet - not in southern Indiana, at least.  Oh, we’ve had a few storybook days, but for the most part, we’re living in the midst of torrential rain and winds so strong they keep blowing my grill off the deck!

However, it won’t be long until the weather turns warm and stays that way, and we all know that means kites, shorts, swimsuits, and insects.

Yes, the bugs love warm weather, too.  Already I’ve seen wasps, and underneath my deck the ants try to build condos even though they’re driven away by my EcoSmart Plastics and Repellem bags I throw under the deck every spring.

Speaking of that, I suppose it’s time.

Yes, every spring I take several EcoSmart Plastics and Repellem trash bags, wad them up, and throw them under my deck.  Nobody can see them under there, but the ants and wasps certainly know about their presence.  Don’t worry about poisons, etc, either - EcoSmart Plastics and Repellem products are made of 100% natural and harmless ingredients, and will disintegrate completely, over just a little bit of time, under your deck or anywhere else.

I haven’t had any problem with ants or wasps on my deck for years now.  Thanks, Repellem!  Such a simple solution to a disgusting problem!

I used to buy trash bags at WalMart, or K-Mart, or Target, and I bought whatever was on sale.  I had no brand loyalty at all.

For a little over a year, however, I haven’t purchased any trash bags at a store at ALL.  On sale, or not, I don’t care.  There is no trash bag sold at these stores that I want.  Not any more.

In my home, we use EcoSmart Repellem products.  Repellem is the only trash bag I will ever use, now that I know and understand their superiority. 

 Back when I used Hefty, or Glad, or some other brand of trash bag, I thought the only use for a trash bag was for, well, trash.  Even with just that one use, those brands of trash bags could never withstand raccoons, or possums, or even the family pets.  No matter how tightly tied up these trash bags might be, animals could smell what was inside, and could easily claw through them and scatter the garbage all over the yard.  I hated that.

Now, with Repellem trash bags, not only are the animals unable to smell or sense the trash, but the Repellem bags are much stronger and thicker than Glad or Hefty bags.  There really is no comparison at all; Repellem is far superior to any other brand.

Besides being great for trash, though, Repellem products can be used in many other ways as well.  Remember:  Repellem products not only repel animals; they also repel insects!  Since I started using Repellem, there have been no mice, or moths, or cockroaches, or gnats, or weevils in my house.  I live out in the country, so this is not a minor thing; I’ve used a LOT of different products to try to keep these things away, but nothing ever worked as well as Repellem products.

Repellem products are also completely non-poisonous - they are perfectly safe to use around children.  EcoSmart Repellem products are made of 100% natural ingredients, are biodegradable, and since I’ve been using them, I feel as if I’m helping to save the earth.

EcoSmart Repellem products are available in some stores, but I order mine from the Repellem website.   I’m a computer person, and it’s just easier for me. 

I will never use any trash bag but EcoSmart Repellem.  Ever.

Don’t forget:  You’ve got until Valentine’s Day to sign up for the Repellem Contest!

Ordinarily, whenever a lot of food is spread out buffet-style, no matter how clean your home might be, there are going to be a few flies buzzing around that food.

However, if you put a Repellem tablecloth under your pretty holiday tablecloth, there will be no flies.  Your pets won’t bother the table, either; Repellem products live up to their name and REPEL all insects and animals! 

When there are pets in the house, it isn’t often that you can spread a buffet of good food on your countertop or table and be able to turn your back on it with a cat or dog around.  With Repellem products, though, you CAN.

I have two lively, pouncing cats, and they love nothing better than to spring up on top of the counters and tables.  This Thanksgiving weekend, with a feast of good things all over the table and counters, the cats didn’t even seem to notice.

There are so many uses for Repellem products!  With EcoSmart’s Repellem, we have the answer to the question:  When is a trash bag or tablecloth not just a trash bag or tablecloth?

Answer:  When it’s a REPELLEM trash bag or tablecloth.

P.S.  Don’t forget to enter the latest EcoSmart Plastics contest!!!  $250.00 is a lot of loot!

I don’t what what kind they are, or why they’re there, but every summer, I get these disgusting little bugs under my kitchen sink.  It’s dry under there; no leaks or standing water.  The pipes are dry, too.  I don’t keep any organic substances under the sink; just soap!  Where do these bugs come from and why are there under the sink?

Rather, why WERE they under the sink, is more like it.  This summer, I wrapped a Repell-em bag around the U-pipe, and so far, not a single bug of any kind has shown its scaly face under there.

When the weather gets hot and muggy, the insects are in paradise.  Stick a Repell-em bag in all those enclosed spaces; they smell great to people, and you won’t be troubled by insects.  I’m serious.  I use nothing but Repell-em bags now, and not only are they the best trash bags ever, they’ve got so many other useful uses, I should write a book!
