I always wondered if the scents in some cloth ‘safe’ detergents were ok for my baby… This gives me something to think about!

I hear of a lot of people spraying a bit on the poopy diapers before putting them in their wet bag to help with staining/odor. Bac-Out contains natural enzymes, what do the enzymes do to the diapers?

It is very informative. Thanks!

Some people have said that they use ALL free & clear. I’m not sure if everyone is aware that this detergent still has optical brighteners in it that will build up in your clothes and diapers. ALL has a detergent that the military uses and is only sold at commissaries. It is also called ALL free & clear but it has a red label that marks it as “free of optical brighteners”. We have used this detergent (under $6 and lasts about 90 loads) for over a year and never once had to strip a diaper. If you have friends or relatives in the military, you could easily ask them to pick up a bottle or two on their next shopping trip to the local base.

We use Tiny Bubbles when we travel, since powder detergents are easier to pack.
