Ward off Spring Pests with Organic Insecticides

Now that Spring has officially sprung and the warmer weather is well on her way, the dormant and pesky pests of summer begin to creep out. Where I live in Arizona, insects, bugs, ants, and the all despised mosquito run rampant in the spring and summer. I despise bugs. With a wrath of passion I cannot stand bugs. Especially ants.

I searched the net high and low for a natural ant killer and the best I could find was cornmeal. Even then, the little buggers were back. I tried cinnamon, water, whatever I could find that was non toxic.

Why non-toxic you ask? Well with my kids running around everywhere, since this is their home too, and an English Bulldog, I needed pest control that I felt comfortable using around them, but effective enough to eliminate my exoskeleton enemy.

EcoSMART is a fabulous company that prides itself in making organic insecticides, among other products, that are safe to use  in and around your home, children, and pets. Not only do they pride themselves in their non-toxic product, it really works!

You too can have this wonderful product in your home to use around your children, animals, everything, without fear of calling poison control! Visit EcoSMART and tell me what products you could use in your home?

  2. I could use so many EcoSmart products! The Ant and Roach Killer, Flying Insect Killer, Weed and Grass Killer, and the Garden Fungicide. Probably will find uses for all the EcoSmart products!

    Thank you. 🙂

  4. We need the ant and roach killer- living in the south the roaches are everywhere, but my cats make me scared to use regular bug sprays.

  15. I could use EcoSMART’s Garden Insect Killer. I love growing tomatoes but the stink bugs are such a nuisance that I didn’t even grow any last year. I hate using commercial insecticide due to concerns about its toxicity. jgs0925 at gmail dot com

  23. I could really use the Home Pest Control. We get all kinds of bugs at my house because we live in a very rural area in Ohio with farms all around us.

  68. I’d use the Ant and Roach killer, we always seem to get an a small ant infestation during the summer. Anything to deter them would be great.

  80. We could use an orgainc non-toxic fertilizer for our yard. We have two small dogs that like to eat the grass and I worry even after some time has passed if they will be harmed with traditional fertilizers. Thanks!
