Greenerways Organic Insect Repellent

I decided to try the Greenerways Organic insect repellent in my yard and garden to try and get rid of some of the pests. I try to use organic products when I can and already use essential oils for many other things in my life, so why not in the yard and garden. Plus, it smells really nice. 

We've had an abundance of ticks and since my baby sister is dealing with Lyme disease, I am super careful with my kids playing in the yard. They have picked up a couple ticks this summer, which we always found right when they came inside...but it still makes me cringe. Since spraying the areas they frequent the most, I haven't found a tick on them. I'm not sure if it is coincidence or if the spray is really repelling the ticks, but at least we haven't had to deal with any ticks.

I've also had issues in my garden with white flies. Since spraying this on the underside of the leaves and around the garden where I have the kale, the white flies have pretty much disappeared. I was getting ready to just pull the kale and forget about it but happy that I tried this spray on it and it took care of the problem. #realhonestopinions #ad

Greenerways Organic Hand Sanitizer & Surface Cleaner

This hand sanitizer by Greenerways Organic has a nice refreshing scent, which I definitely prefer over the alcohol based sanitizers with chemical fragrances. The spearmint stands out to me the most of all the oils in it. I mostly use this on my (and my kids) hands but also on door handles/shopping cart handles when we are out and about. For hands, I do notice that there is a slight sticky feeling initially, but after a minute that goes away and my hands just feel really soft. The 2 oz size is convenient for sticking in the diaper bag or my purse. Will definitely purchase more for winter, you can never be too cautious sanitizing during sick season and using something natural/organic is a priority to me with my family.
