Perfect for cloth diapering! If you don't mind being hijacked I will share my method. We also use charlies soap but instead of tea tree oil I used 1/4 cup vinegar in the rinse. I can't store my diapers in the wash so I have a large hanging wet bag for dirty diapers next to the changing table. We wash every other day as Samantha has padded my stash with enough diapers to do so :-) On wash day I dump the wet bag in the wash inside out. I do a cold soak and rinse. Then a heavy duty wash (warm/warm) with 1/4 tbl of charlies (WE LOVE CHARLIES SOAP!)and vinegar. Then a heavy duty wash without soap. Sometimes I do an additional warm rinse just to make sure there is no build up.... don't want the stinkys! Kylan is on solids so if he does accidentally (we partially EC) poop in his diaper I knock the solids off in the toilet before they go in the wet bag. I always love reading about other families cloth diaper routine! I dry all our diaper in the dryer (on low) since I have all fitteds no risk of the PUL wearing out :-)Audrey Houstonnoreply@blogger.com
