I know that you should avoid fabric softener or perfume Any help will be appricated, because the more I read with my basic english and the more I'am lost LOL Link to comment
DailyDi Posted June 28, 2021 Share Posted June 28, 2021 Tide Free works great, but if you are really concerned you can buy Dreft that is made for babies/diapers Link to comment

Little BabyDoll Christine Posted July 6, 2021 Share Posted July 6, 2021 Dreft used to be the go-to for diapers, Since they changed the scent, I use Tide or Xtra with Oxy. Contrary to belief, scented detergents are not harmful to the diaper, nor to the persons UNLESS, they has an allergy, which is uncommon. Here is a site that goes in detail for caring for diapers using an HE washer. Granted, it is for baby diapers but a diaper is a diaper https://fluffloveuniversity.com/ In truth, there are no soaps used in modern times. They have been replaced by detergents, which use a different mechanism to clean fabrics and other things. Since they do not depend on oils, detergentws are safe for rubber panteis as well. Flufflovers recommend Tide and Dreft. I have quit on Dreft since they changed the scent to a more adult one, Tide with Oxy is hard to find and smells strange and ordinary Tide and Xtra have a more line-tried scent Do avoid fabric softteners, both washer and dryer as they lessen the absorbency of the diaper 1 Link to comment

BabyJune Posted July 7, 2021 Share Posted July 7, 2021 I only use Purex laundry detergent on my diapers as well as Purex non-chlorine bleach to soak them in while I'm waiting to wash them. I wash what I use every day. 2 Link to comment

I wash what I use every day. If you clean them immediately after use, and they are clean to start out, You really only need to run them through a wash and 2 rince cycles and not use any detergent. That is what I do 8 times out of 10 and they have no odor when dry. I use cool or very lukewarm water so nothing can "set" 1 Link to comment
