EarthKind® now manufacturers a revolutionary all-natural pest prevention and rodent repellent product line called Stay Away®. In a patented pouch design, which delivers long-lasting slow release of proven oils, each variety of Earthkind Stay Away® – Rodent, Spiders, Moths, Ants, Beetles – quickly and naturally repels pests from treated areas. Simply place the Stay Away® pouch in any indoor or enclosed area to ensure pests literally stay away from your home, while at the same time protecting yourself, your loved ones, pets and the environment, because all EarthKind Stay Away® products contain absolutely no poisons or toxic materials.

Stay Away® Rodent

Made with Balsam Fir Oil, Stay Away® Rodent repels rats and mice with odor that is offensive to rodents, but pleasant to humans. For thousands of years, balsam fir trees have built up a resistance to rodents eating their bark, making it an extremely effective, and safe ingredient. It can be used to repel rodents from treated areas for up to 30 days. Use indoors in mouse-prone areas such as attics, pantries, basements and garages, and in enclosed spaces, such as vehicles.

Stay Away® Spiders

Made with Citronella, Lemongrass and Rosemary, Stay Away® Spiders disrupts a spider’s sophisticated senses, keeping them out of treated areas with a scent pleasant to people, but offensive to spiders. Use one pouch anywhere webs or spiders are noticed, such as basements, closets and attics, increasing the number of pouches until desired results are obtained. Replace when scent has diminished, typically within 30-60 days.

Stay Away® Moths

Made with Geraniol, Geranium and Cedar, Stay Away® Moths should be placed in the quiet, undisturbed areas that moths tend to lay their eggs, where they emit a scent pleasant to people, but offensive to moths. Use one pouch anywhere clothes or linens are stored, such as drawers, chests and closets, increasing the number of pouches until desired results are obtained. Replace when scent has diminished, typically within 30-60 days.

Stay Away® Ants

Made with Lemongrass, Peppermint and Thyme, Stay Away® Ants pouches should be placed where food particles are present, keeping ants away by emitting a scent pleasant to people, but offensive to super-sensitive ants. Use one pouch anywhere ants go to find food, such as pantries and cupboards, increasing the number of pouches until desired results are obtained. Replace when scent has diminished, typically within 30-60 days.

Stay Away® Beetles

Made with Rosemary oil, Stay Away® Beetle should be placed anywhere Asian beetles, boxelder bugs, or stink bugs make their way indoors. Beetles and bugs seek out warm entrances to a home to gain harbor from inclement weather conditions, or to overwinter. Stay Away® Beetles scent will repel them back outdoors when placed at entry points. Use one pouch per entryway, window sill, small porch or sunroom. Increase the number of pouches as needed until desired results are obtained and replace when the scent has diminished, typically within 30-60 days.

Pouch Pod™

The Pouch Pod™ is a bio-based pouch holder made of family-farm grown flax and other plant fibers. Place any Stay Away® pouch in the Pod to prevent and repel pests. It preserves the essential oil for up to 3x longer, prevents curious children and pets from tampering with the pouch, and protects finished wooden surfaces and clothing that may be affected by essential oils

“Customers wanting to get rid of pests in their homes are seeking safe and effective alternatives to poisons, which have long been the only viable options available on store shelves,” said EarthKind® Founder and CEO Kari Warberg Block. “At EarthKind®, we are pleased to be able to say that we have created a product that meets that need. As the daughter of an entomologist, and a mother myself, it was important to me to create a better way to keep pests away from the spaces where we live, work and play, without harming them or my family.”
