This is been the wettest, rainiest, stormiest spring in living memory, and with the moisture come the bugs.  Bugs love wet.  Bugs love humidity.Just mowing the grass, in the bright sunshine, the gnats, mosquitoes, ticks, chiggers, and you-name-it come out in droves, sensing fresh blood.  You can spray your body with expensive chemicals and the bugs will just gnaw around it.However, there’s a way to spend some outdoor time without risking dangerous smelly chemicals.  It’s easy. Just tie a strip of EcoSmart Plastics and Repellem around your ankle, and the bugs will give you a wide berth.    Tie a few strips around sticks and place them in your garden, and your tomatoes will be bug-free, too.On your deck, tie some Repellem strips here and there on the posts, and you can sit on your swing or cook out without constantly batting the bugs away.  There will BE no bugs.EcoSmart Plastics and Repellem products are wonderful in any season, but in the hot, humid summer weather you’ll be even more grateful that you’ve got ‘em!They’re absolutely 100% safe to use on your tiny children, too.

EcoSmart Plastics created Repellem products using all-natural ingredients.  That means that you will be able to use Repellem products even in a house where babies and small children live, because there is nothing whatsoever in any Repellem product that would present a danger of any kind!

Repellem products contain no chemicals or poisons; they do not kill animals and insects - Repellem REPELS animals and insects.  Repellem products will not harm any living thing in any way!

Most household products that keep a home free of insects or unwanted animals must be locked tightly away from curious children, because if such a product fell into a child’s hands it would also end up in a child’s mouth - children are curious, and try to eat almost everything except vegetables, remember.  Even if a child chewed or sucked on a Repellem trash bag or tablecloth, the child would not be harmed in any way.

It is advisable to keep ALL plastic bags out of the reach of tiny children, however, because of the suffocation possibility.

The New Year is here.  This is the first Monday of 2009!  Let us begin, and keep on, with a policy of a cleaner, greener home.
