If there is one thing that really bugs me, I would have to say that it's bugs. I don't like them at all! Funny how those of us who dislike bugs the most seem to also attract them the most. I think the thing I dread most in the Summertime is the mosquitoes. I am always on the hunt for a good natural bug spray. It's important to me to have a natural bug spray that doesn't have any harmful chemicals and is safe to use on children.
EcoSMART is an organic pesticide company that sells a variety of pest control products which are all non-toxic and safe around children and pets. Their mission is to "create the world's safest, most effective pesticides based on natural ingredients". All of the EcoSMART product lines are based on essential oils, the natural defense that plants and trees use for their own protection against insects and pathogens.
I recieved a Safe Home Value Bundle from EcoSMART which included a Home Pest Control Spray (can be used indoor or outdoor for most bugs and insects), Flying Insect Killer, Ant & Roach Killer, and Insect Repellent.
Although I haven't had a chance to use it yet this year, I'm super excited about the Insect Repellent, since I have issues with mosquitoes. I did get the chance to try out the Flying Insect Killer on the many wasps that have all of a sudden started hanging out all around the outside of our house. I do wish that it sprayed in a stronger stream, but It's still better than using something that has all kinds of chemicals in it.
I'm also really happy to have the home pest control spray, which kills and repels many common bugs and insects, including roaches, which seem to be our most common problem. I had a good opportunity to use it this morning, actually...I killed a beetle that was on my kitchen counter!
So now to the really fun part. The best part about all of this is, you get a chance to win a Safe Home Value Bundle!! The giveaway starts today, and will end April 19, 2010 at 11:00pm (EST). This giveaway is open to U.S. residents except Alaska and Hawaii. To enter, leave a comment on this post telling why you want or need this value bundle, and also leave me your email address so that I can contact you if you win. Thanks!
*I received a bundle to review. This in no way influences my opinion or review of these products.

We seem to have an army of flying bugs on the deck each year. They buzz around and annoy my son so that he dislikes being out on the deck. It would be nice to use an eco smart way of eliminating them.
This sounds like a great pest control. I don´t like bugs either and my little one is into picking up everything. I would love this so that I can kill them and get them out of there before J finds them!

I would love to have this because I have a three year old I do not like harsh chemicals to be around, yet flying insect spray is a must around our home! Thanks for the giveaway.

We have a lot of trees and live close to a lake so mosquitos and various flying insects are a pain here.

We garden and have pets, so we always seem to have univited pest guest.

We have such a problem with bees/wasps on our porch and I've been loathe to spray anything toxic because I'm pregnant. I would love to win this!
I could really us this because we have been led to lead a more conservative life finacially as well as take care of the Earth, so we started a garden. Which means more time outdoors, with the buggies. And our youngest, who will be 3 this summer, puts EVERYTHING in her mouth still, so toxic poisons aren't even an option.
