My Top Secret To Get Rid of Bugs

This post is sponsored by Zevo, however, all opinions are my own.

I hate bugs. I’m the girl that jumps if I see a spider or shrieks if a roach runs past me. I’m just not a fan and I certainly don’t like seeing them in my home. This past year, we moved into our new custom home on the lake and one thing I wasn’t expecting was all of the insects. There are so many more bugs out and about around the water and it has made for an interesting unwelcome guest list at our house. Thankfully, I found an amazing product line up to get rid of bugs in our house – Zevo Insect.

I like to think of Zevo Insect as my secret weapon. If you have been to our house or watch my stories on Instagram, you know that we are avid Zevo Insect users. I am a HUGE fan of the brand and use them in our house constantly for three reasons.

Zevo products are nature-inspired with no harsh chemicals.

As a mom of two, I need products in my home that I trust around my kids and that I can rely on, so my favorite aspect about Zevo products is that they effectively eliminate bugs while being safe for use around people and pets when used as directed. Zevo sprays use a deep understanding of the differences between bugs vs. people/pets to target nervous system receptors only active in bugs. Plus, the active ingredients in Zevo sprays are inspired by plants’ natural defenses against insects/bugs, not harsh chemicals.

The smell fantastic.

Yes, that’s right, they smell fantastic. I hate the way traditional insecticides smell. I know they kill bugs, but they constantly make me nervous or anxious about the chemicals being sprayed in or around my house. With Zevo, I win all on all fronts. It actively kills bugs and it smells amazing! It is seriously the best smelling bug spray I have ever come across.

THEY REALLY WORK!

Bugs are very resilient and smart — but, Zevo is even smarter. Way smarter than bugs. Zevo works to eliminate the bugs you see (with sprays) and the bugs you don’t (with traps). I have a Zevo Flying Insect Trap at each door of my home and I can tell you they REALLY WORK! They use a combination of light and heat to attract and capture flying insects 24/7. I typically change out my flying insect traps once a month and they are always filled with bugs from when we open our doors at night. It’s amazing how well they work!

And, their sprays really do their job too! Their powerful spray formulas were developed by entomologists and scientists, based on a deep understanding of bug biology. Last month, we had an ant problem outside of Brooke’s room and Zevo came to my rescue big time! I used their ant, roach and fly spray to effectively kill all of the ants! On top of that, not once did I worry about chemicals. I knew Zevo was safe because of its friendly ingredient list and I was using it as directed, and I knew it was taking care of the job!

I cannot tell you enough about how much I love the Zevo Insect brand. I really use them in my home 24/7 and trust them. For more information or to see their ingredients for yourself, you can check out their website. The Zevo Insect product lineup is available to buy from their website, or at Home Depot or Target.

  • #BISSELLPartner I really thought my floors were clean… until I turned this on 😳

The headlights showed EVERYTHING—dust, crumbs, all the stuff you don’t normally see—and honestly, I don’t have time to go over the same spot again and again, so this is a lifesaver.

Lately, I’ve been using the BISSELL PowerClean DualBrush™ and what I love most is that it handles real-life messes in ONE PASS.

From breakfast crumbs on hardwood to dirt in the entryway to debris in rugs, it just moves right through it. The dual brush rolls grab both big and small messes, and the AutoAdapt technology automatically boosts suction when it hits dirtier areas, so you’re not doing extra work.

& The FurFinder™ Upholstery Tool targets stubborn, pet hair and removes it so well! 

✨COMMENT “shop” for the link ✨ It’s also $100 off right now ($359.99 → $259.99) from 4/5–5/30! Do yourself a favor, add this to your cart!

She just really wanted a chill night at home with her friends doing nails 💅🏻 , getting hair tinsel 💁🏼‍♀️, eating pizza 🍕 (& sweets 🍭) and watching girl movies 🎥.
