Owning a home can come with a lot of responsibilities. My husband and I bought our home about 2 1/2 years ago. We were so excited to be homeowners for the first time. We knew that the house we chose was an older home, so that meant we’d have a lot of work to do on the house. It didn’t matter to us because we found the home we knew we were going to love. We wanted a house with a nice size backyard for our children, and a house out in the country so that we could have chickens and ducks. Sometimes with older homes, there are more likely to be pests like spiders, moths, ants and mice. We’ve got an older basement, and I see spiders all the time and I like to keep them away as much as possible. Thankfully, EarthKind has these amazing products that can help keep some of these pests away from your home.
EarthKind believes the home should be a safe zone, that’s why their products create a protective barrier that’s free of worry, harm, and hazardous chemicals. The majority of pest control products contain dangerous toxins that can not only harm pests, but that can seriously harm you, your kids, your pets and your environment, too. The EarthKind mission is to “preserve the good and prevent the rest,” – creating the first natural pest prevention line made exclusively with botanical fibers and essential oils sourced from American farms, and absolutely no poisons or toxic-baits.
EarthKind’s Stay Away® line helps bring consumer trust back into everyday products with their eco-friendly, clean and effective pest control pouches –no toxins, no mess, no harm, no clean-up and most importantly – no pests! I personally love that these are in pouches. These pouches make it a lot easier to place them where you’d like.
I love that these products come with scents. Each of these products emit a scent that are actually great scents. Even though these scents may smell great, they are not scents that some of these pests like. They can help keep them away from areas such as closets, kitchens, pantries, basements and more! I think it’s great because my basement now smells amazing and this product is helping to keep all the spiders away. Since I’m using the stay away spiders product, it has the scent made with rosemary, lemongrass and citronella oils.
Since my basement is an older basement, I have found spider webs down there along with spiders. I knew this stay away spiders product would work great for that. They’re extremely easy to use too. All you have to do is take them out of the box and then take the product out of its plastic wrap. There are a total of two pouches inside each box. You can use one of pouches per entryway or two per small room. Make sure not to put these pouches directly on furniture or finished surfaces as the product might stain. I used both of these since my basement is a decent size. I wanted to make sure I could get rid of them as much as possible. Being able to use them both is wonderful, and has been great at helping keep those spiders away.
By placing these pouches into any pest-prone areas, you will create protective zones that are safe for your family, pets, home and environment. It’s important for me to always think of protecting my family, so these stay away products from EarthKind are truly amazing. I’m always thinking of better ways to help improve my home, especially since i have children. These products help keep those pest away, and can protect my family from them.
It’s wonderful how simple these products are to use. They’re some of the best pest products I’ve ever used, and the fact that they actually smell great is a huge plus for me. If you’ve ever tried other products, you know how bad they can make your home smell. These products from EarthKind will actually make your home smell great. You can find these stay away products at Lowe’s, ACE Hardware, Tractor Supply, Target and online at www.earthkind.com.
Have you ever had any problems with pests in your home?
These sound cool. I might have to try these out. I like how they smell great. Normally these kind of things reek, which I hate. We sometimes get ants in the house, so the next time that happens, I’ll try these!
Right! These actually smell really good, so that was a huge plus for me.
Will need to check this out during the spring/summer when those pesky ants find their way to our homes!
Right! Ants are horrible in summer.
These would come in handy in certain places in and around our home. Will have to remember this for summer
Right! I’m certainly using them for summer time too.
oh my goodness this seems like something im desperate to get for my house to protect it- spiders are NOT my jam ha so i may have to grab a few of these so pests dont come in!
Right! Spiders are the worst.
I love this idea. I have a dog and I would worry about him getting at any bugs or creepy crawlies. This is a nice, safe alternative. I would buy these!
Right! They’re such great products.
I have to look into getting this for my home. Especially, being a homeowner. This would be perfect!
Right! Certainly great for homeowners.
These look cool! And sounds like they definitely come in handy. No one wants those critters in their household!
Right! I hate having pests around.
OK I could totally do with these in my life, we’ve had issues with ants and mice before so having something that can help protect the area would really help.
Right! It’s nice that they’re not those smelly products either.
I can appreciate something that gets rid of mice and spiders that doesn’t smell horrid. I’ll have to look for these so I’m prepared!
Right. Me too!
We have ant problems every year. I’d love a product like this that deals with them in a safe but effective way.
Those ants are horrible in summer.
I am not a fan of bugs, so proper pest control is absolutely essential. How wonderful that this line is free from hazardous chemicals!
I completely agree!
These sound like great products for pest control. Since I have pets and a granddaughter, I hate laying out poison or using harmful chemicals.
Yes, they sure are.
I haven’t found any pests as of yet in the home we moved into this past summer but I would like to be prepared. Once spring comes I am sure I will see my fair share. I am so not a fan of any type of pest.
Usually it’s spiders that are in most homes. They’re the worst really.
I’ve never heard of these before. We definitely have a spider issue around our house.
Same here. They’re in the basement mostly.
As a cancer survivor, I try really hard not to have those chemical based products in my home. I am glad to see this alternative.
I agree. Having better products like these is a must.
I’m not familiar with these products, but I want to learn more about them. I live in an old house and have our share of spiders. I don’t want to kill them or harm the environment, but I would be happier if they just moved away.
Right! My house is also older, so spiders are always in the basement.
Wow they cover every irritating nusiance when it comes to ‘invaders of the home’. I can’t stand ants being in the house as you never know where they are hiding out.
Right! It’s great to be prepared.
Wow I have never heard of this brand. I love that they cover ants, mice, and spiders. We haven’t really had any issues with moths or mice but the ants and the spiders seem to think we are a vacation home during certain times of the year.
I love it as well. It’s nice to have around the house.
Fortunately for me, I live on the third floor of an apartment complex so I don’t really deal with a lot of pests! Thank goodness!!
That’s so nice.
I think you can find spiders almost in every house. It’s great that there are easy to use products that can protect our home. I love that Earthkind has natural pest prevention line. I will try it for sure!
Right! These are great for helping rid of them.
I don’t like rainy season because ants seem to find a way into our house. I would love to try thata lemon grass scent for getting rid of ants.
I completely agree.
I need the ant one. Oh my goodness we have those little ants invading everything!
Those are awful, especially in summer!
Definitely would stock up on these just to stay prepared! Is there one for humidity bugs?
Right! Being prepared is great. I don’t think they have them for humidity bugs though.
Oh yeah, pests are everywhere especially during the summer. But during the wintertime, it’s stink bugs. Lots of them.
Yes, summer time is the worst.
I like that these don’t stink up the place when you use them. We have some spiders in our property and a heck load of ants (perks of having mango trees!). I’ll be looking into these.
I love that as well. It’s nice to have something that isn’t smelly.
These sound so cool, I need to get them. We live in Florida and feels like no matter how much I clean we get ants and spiders.
They have been working great too. I get it about spiders and ants. They’re horrible.
We don’t have a problem with most of these pests except for the ants. We tend to get overrun by them during the summer. So I’ll absolutely look into this.
Right. Summer is the worst for pests.
Not that I like bugs but I should get this for my sister. I was always her big killer when we were little and she lives by herself now. I think this would be great for her.
They work wonderful!
This sounds like a great product. I need the one for spiders.
Right! It works great for spiders.
