Disclaimer: I don’t kill bugs, unless they’re in my house and they’re too small to free outside.
Many moons ago, a company called EcoSmart sent me a sample of their organic ant and roach killer to test out. I finally got some ants inside my humble abode today, so I put the organic pesticide to the test.
Let me tell you, las hormigas didn’t stand a chance. They were dead within seconds, as a licorice scent filled the room. All I had to do then was wipe up the residue, which was easy to do.
So if you’re looking for an organic insecticide that’s non-toxic and safe around kids and pets (so they say), then check out EcoSmart. But you don’t have to take my word for it.

Cool crawly bugs! How neat. And it's good to hear about an eco-friendly insecticide. Good reporting. I also get rid of bugs by taking them outside sometimes, especially daddy longlegs and moths, if I can catch them. It feels good not to kill them and I feel like I am doing a good deed.

BAaahhhh! Don't you have a heart, Eco Joe? I, too, often find it challenging to resist freebies when the opportunity arises, but still, to commit intentional bugicide for blogging material…awwww, it just makes me kinda sad. I totally agree with E Sheppard…when at all possible, I take any critter that I can successfully scoop up in a cup (with the help of a piece of cardstock) back outside. Still, I'm not going to hold it against you. I really do like what you're doing here (insect annihillation aside) and think that your perspective would be welcome on http://www.greenwala.com. It's a green social network for eco joes and jills like you and me… please take a look around and submit a few of your articles to increase your exposure!

Ah, did you read my disclaimer? They were too small to catch and free outside
If it's any consolance, the bugs were killed instantly. I didn't do it for the blogging material, honestly.
I shall check out your site in a wee bit, got to take care of some mess first.
And I saved a rabbit a few days ago from one of my cats, so I think my karma balances out, yeah?
