Living in the South we are constantly trying to find solutions to keep pesky insects out of our home. Home pest control seems to be a stressful factor for us in the summertime--mainly with ants. It doesn't matter how often we clean, what we try to do--ants are constantly marching into our lives--and not in a good way.
When I first heard about EcoSMART, I was very interested in testing out a product--especially one that works. Described as an organic bug control it is the world's leader in safe pesticides with their products based on natural ingredients. Their different products have come up with a solution that uses natural defenses that plants and trees have used for self protection from insects and pathogens for millenia--essential oils.
Another bonus in my book is that EcoSMART is safe around children, pets, and the environment. This is so important to so many people--we all want our families, friends, furry friends as well as the environment to be safe from dangerous chemicals that are found in many different pesticides.
We tried out the Organic Home Pest Control spray. Leo tested it around our dining room windows where we typically find the pesky ants entering. They usually love one of our bushes by that window and then somehow come inside. As he started spraying I asked him what he thought. He loved that it smelled minty--and wasn't a repulsive chemical smell. After he was done I could smell the minty scent in our living room--much better than other sprays we have used in the past. The scent wasn't overwhelming and after approximately 5 minutes the scent was gone.
We have yet to see any bugs make their way into our dining room and kitchen. And I'm pretty sure my husband is on board with the EcoSystem products. They offer a large variety of organic bug control products to include:
Ant & Roach Killer {can}
Flying Insect Killer {can}
Wasp and Hornet Killer {can}
Insect Repellent {bottle}
Lawn Insect Killer {hose end}
Garden Insect Killer {bottle}
Garden Fungicide {bottle}
Home Pest Control {bottle}
Their products are very affordable--you can find products ranging from $7/bottle to $31/value packs.

I learned they partner with Sergeant's for pet products!
Way to go! I always use organic products around anything concerning food, so that's why I use an organic bug killer when gardening. I haven't tried the Eco brand yet, probably because I've been using the Safer Brand bug killer and have been quite happy.
I learned that the home pest control has Clove Oil, Rosemary Oil, Peppermint Oil, Thyme Oil! Nice organic way to control pests!
I have the Ant & Roach spray--it works extremely well on the ants that we have a continual problem with. It apparently has a different formulation than the Pest Spray, since it smells more like cinnamon and is quite strong. I rather like it, but some members of the family have not been so happy with it, and it does linger for quite a while.

At EcoSmart, I'd like to try the Wasp and Hornet Killer. My dad and my daughter both got stung repeatedly last summer.

Their products are made with essentials oils which by nature are fragrant, but are non-toxic and do not require vacating the area after use.

Our insecticides will not harm your plants if applied per the label directions. Some plants may be sensitive to our oils under certain conditions. Do not spray on newly planted cuttings, plant stressed by drought or when temperatures exceed 90 degrees Fahrenheit. Do not spray the blooms directly. It is recommended to always test a small area first.

I learned that the primary active ingredients in EcoSMART products are approved as Direct Food Additives or classified as GRAS (Generally Recognized As Safe) by the U.S. Food & Drug Administration. These oils are commonly used to add flavor and aroma to many cosmetic, beverage and food products, including cake, candy, sweetener, gum, soft drinks, and lipstick.
