JAWZ Rodent Traps

Winter months can bring unwanted roommates. Take care of them quickly with JT Eaton JAWZ Traps. Available in two sizes, these traps are easy to set, won't misfire, have a bait holder (we recommend peanut butter), and are reusable. Best yet, you only need one hand for disposal, so risk of touching the recently departed.

Sun Bum Sunscreens

Protect your lazy ass with Sun Bum's full line of sun protection lotions and sprays.

Cocoa Beach, Florida based Sun Bum launched an impressive line of products last summer. Their products are made using high quality ingredients to provide users with quality protection. The products are ultra-waterproof to help reduce the amount of times the products need to be re-applied. They are also hypoallergenic to help reduce any side effects for people with allergies. The products are also vitamin E enriched to help keep your skin healthy and smooth.

Suncreens made by Sun Bum are tested, approved and recommended by The Skin Cancer Foundation. SCF is the most trusted source when it comes to sun protection products. Their seal of approval means that Sun Bum's products have been tested and passed the SCF's very stringent standards for rating suncreen products. Having this seal from The Skin Cancer Foundation is a big win for Sun Bum and will help to establish them as a player in the world of sun protective products.

So, have fun in the sun this summer and don't forget to use your Sun Bum. You won't regret it.

Prefense Alcohol-Free Hand Sanitizer

Prefense Alcohol-Free Hand Sanitizer saves your hands from bacteria and from drying out.

We picked Prefense up a few months ago at the request of a local school teacher who was constantly using hand sanitizer. After a day dealing with sick kids, runny noses, dirty hands, and anything else kids happen to come in contact with, her hands would be raw.

Since Prefense is water based, it doesn't have the drying effect other sanitizers have and is also nonflammable (sorry, 6th grade chemistry students). Prefense kills germs for up to 24 hours, 100% poison free, safe for children, and stays active for up to 10 hand washings. Two sizes are available: a convenient travel size, good for a glove box or a purse, and a larger "Billy, stop picking your nose!" size.

Zip-it drain cleaner

Zip-It is the easy, cost-effective, and environmentally sound way to fix your slow or clogged drains.

Zip-It works without chemicals to pull out what ever may be down your drain. It's handy because you can never be sure what chemicals will do to your piping (or to your skin for that matter), especially in older buildings. All one has to do is slide Zip-It down the problem drain, pull back up, and repeat. One or two passes will get the majority of the drain clean. It's usually not pretty to pull back up but Zip-it will remove hair and all that other gunk that has built up over the years. Zip-It is reusable and we recommend it to everyone with drain problems prior to using chemicals. We also recommend you pick up rubber gloves, the stuff coming out of the drains is usually pretty gross.

Now Designs Cloth Goods

Now Designs is a manufacturer of quality kitchen linens, kitchen wear, and diningware.They provide a great selection of matching aprons, oven mitts, pot holders and dish towels in an array of colors and patterns.
