3 Moms Organics is so proud to announce that we are officially MADE SAFE® certificated.

What does this mean?

The MADE SAFE® certification is a significant achievement, reflecting our commitment to creating products that are safe for both consumers and the environment. The certification process is rigorous, scientific, and independent, making the MADE SAFE seal a prestigious mark of quality and safety. Products that earn the MADE SAFE (Made With Safe Ingredients™) seal undergo extensive screening to ensure they avoid or limit the use of over 6,500 substances on the Banned/Restricted List, eliminating the most hazardous chemicals commonly found in everyday products.

As the founders of 3 Moms Organics, we take immense pride in our MADE SAFE® certification because it embodies our unwavering commitment to the safety of our community and the well-being of our planet. This certification is not just a label; it’s a testament to the rigorous testing every ingredient in TickWise undergoes, ensuring that our product is completely free of harmful chemicals. Our primary mission is to protect families from the dangers of tick-borne illnesses, mosquito-borne diseases, and other insect bites, all while providing peace of mind with a clean, safe product. Achieving the MADE SAFE® certification is the pinnacle of that mission, reaffirming to our customers that they can trust TickWise to keep their loved ones safe as they enjoy the great outdoors.

Why are you proud of your MADE SAFE® Certification?

As the founders of 3 Moms Organics, we take immense pride in our MADE SAFE® certification because it embodies our unwavering commitment to the safety of our customers and the well-being of our planet. This certification is not just a label; it’s a testament to the rigorous testing every ingredient in TickWise undergoes, ensuring that our product is completely free of harmful chemicals. Our primary mission is to protect families from the dangers of tick-borne illnesses, mosquito-borne diseases, and other insect bites, all while providing peace of mind with a clean, safe product. Achieving the MADE SAFE® certification is the pinnacle of that mission, reaffirming to our customers that they can trust TickWise to keep their loved ones safe as they enjoy the great outdoors.

Why is it important to have third-party validation for your products?

With our backgrounds in entomology and environmental science, we developed TickWise with a deep commitment to using clean, safe ingredients. While we meticulously crafted our product, prioritizing safety and environmental responsibility, it’s crucial to have third-party validation to confirm that our efforts meet the highest standards. This external validation not only reinforces our commitment to our customers and the planet but also builds trust, ensuring that our products deliver the safety and effectiveness that families deserve. We are hopeful that this certification will help protect more families from tick-borne illnesses and mosquito borne-diseases. 

Why did you start your company?

Our journey began with personal battles against Lyme disease, which made creating a safe and effective insect repellent a necessity for us to enjoy the outdoors. LJ, our founder, faced the challenge of not being able to use traditional insect repellents due to their harmful chemicals like DEET. With no other option, she was determined to make her own. What started as a mission to protect our own families from ticks and mosquitoes has grown into a commitment to keep all families safe with a clean product that truly works.

How are your products different from other, more conventional, products in the space?

Unfortunately, many products in our space are labeled as ‘safe’ or ‘natural,’ misleading customers into believing they are purchasing something clean. In reality, these products often contain harmful chemicals, fail to adhere to EPA guidelines, and rarely hold certifications like MADE SAFE®. This not only undermines efforts to combat tick-borne and mosquito-borne diseases but also puts families at risk with ineffective and potentially harmful solutions. TickWise stands apart from other insect repellents because it truly contains safe, clean ingredients, is MADE SAFE® certified, and has been proven effective against ticks, mosquitoes, and other biting insects. We’re committed to offering a product that families can trust to protect their health and well-being.

What’s the one thing you would never do as a maker of better products?

We will never compromise on the quality and safety of the ingredients we use in TickWise, nor on our transparency with our customers. We believe in being an open book because the trust our community and customers place in us is critical to our mission. That trust is something we value deeply and will never take for granted.

What do you wish shoppers thought about more, and why?

We wish more shoppers took the time to read and understand the ingredients in the products they use. If harmful products weren’t purchased, businesses would be compelled to make more ethical decisions, prioritize the planet, and put customer safety first. Our purchasing decisions should reflect our values and goals if we want better products, more options, a healthier planet, and a healthier future. Conscious consumerism is key to driving positive change in the marketplace.

What’s the one product in your line you can’t live without, and why?

TickWise, without a doubt! It’s our all-natural, MADE SAFE® certified insect repellent that’s proven effective against ticks, mosquitoes, and other biting insects. Available in various sizes to suit every need, TickWise is essential whether you’re camping, hiking, or just enjoying the outdoors. It gives you peace of mind by adding an extra layer of protection for your family against the harmful illnesses that ticks and mosquitoes can carry. We refuse to let the fear of ticks and mosquitoes keep us indoors. With TickWise, we’re prepared, not scared.

What have you done to make your life healthier (i.e., do you meditate daily, practice mindfulness, yoga, walk, etc.), and why?

We are enthusiastic gardeners. Gardening allows us to connect with nature while moving our bodies, soaking up fresh air and vitamin D, and lowering stress levels. It’s a practice that enriches our mental and physical health while also benefiting the environment. By growing plants for pollinators, creating diverse habitats, and reducing pollutants in the air, water, and soil, we’ve found that gardening is a fulfilling way to give back to Mother Earth. We love our gardens, and they love us back!
