Cloth Nappy Tree Forum

I use Bold-2-in-1 powder, just a small amount & occasionally add some napisan that seems to keep the smells away.
But as PP have said occasionally his NN stink to high heaven in the mornings, only usually for a day or so which i assume is teething related.

We had the same problem here this morning and I stripped the nappy she was wearing last week. I will have to be more thorough and keep an eye on the rinse cycle. I have been using washing balls and soda crystals so there shouldn't be residue.

switching to a powder may help as well, the liquids and gels aren't the best and are very bad for you machine

Defiantly switch to bio powder. I was using Ariel liquid for a while and ended up with the same problem In the end I soaked them in white vinegar/Vanish oxy and water over night in the bath and then washed them with a full dose of Ariel powder and just rinsed and rinsed and rinsed and rinsed (you get the picture ) A bit of a drastic measure but worked for me oh and plenty of sun also helps the problem.

I'm doing a strip wash now, just the night nappies. I always use soda crystals which can be found in the washing aisle at the supermarket - mine are from tesco but can't remember the name but they're in a green packet

will get some soda crystals! i will stop using liquid, i have persil non bio and bold 2in1 powder so will use that for nappies. i thought liquid was better for your machine???as doesnt clog up the drawer?
......tonight im trying a flip insert with a large prefold as a fitted with a disana wool cover..hope this is less smelly...im staying clear of wnnn for now !!!
has anyone tried those bbh magic alls? i want to try but they have pul so im asuming like a wrap and will create a rash?

Liquid is actually worse for clogging up your machine. Can't remember why but have read it several times on here

Apparently it doesn't dissolve properly, so leaves a film on your pipes. Seems a bit mad, when it's already liquid.

just a quick question...ive heard you can use baking powder?well i have already got this,but it says use vinager after to rinse, is this normal vinager what you put on chips?(sorry to be thick)
