Diapers
- Wet or Dry Pail Method
WET
PAIL METHOD (SOAKING)
This
method allows you to soak your diapers until ready to wash. The
benefit to this method is easier stain removal, and less frequent
laundering.
HOW
TO DO IT:
Fill
your pail 1/2 full with cold water and 1/4 cup of vinegar or baking
soda.
Dispose
of flushable
liner or shake off excess poop into toilet. No rinsing is
necessary (especially if your baby is breastfed exclusively).
After
3-4 days or at about 2 - 3 dozen dirty diapers - empty the contents
of your diaper pail into the washer and spin out the excess liquid.
Proceed
with washing instructions.
Please
make sure if you are using this method that your pail is securely
fastened and out of reach of children.
DRY
PAIL METHOD (NO SOAKING)
The
benefit of this method is a lighter pail and no diaper soup!
HOW
TO DO IT:
Sprinkle
baking soda at bottom of pail and line your pail with a washable
bag for easy transport to washing machine.
Dispose
of flushable
liner or shake off excess poop into toilet. No rinsing necessary
(especially if your baby is breastfed exclusively).
Put
wet or soiled diapers in the pail
Do
a quick cold-water rinse cycle before your regular wash cycle
so as not to set any stains in the hot water wash.
Proceed
with washing instructions.
If
you use this method you will need to wash about every 2 days or
your diapers will stink!
