Prewash

Before using your new Easy nappies by bambooty please prewash 3 times to remove any manufacturing residues and to ensure absorbency. It is not necessary to dry the nappies in between washes.

After use

Keep nappies in a dry lidded nappy bucket until a load for washing has accumulated. There is no need for dangerous buckets of water full of chemicals around the house.

Wet nappies can be placed straight in the dry bucket although saturating them with a Little Squirt or under the tap will increase the longevity of your nappies as wee is very acidic and will wear the fabrics and elastic faster.

Soiled nappies are very similar. Simply flush away your flushable liner, tip rolling poos straight into the loo or rinse off the poo by using a Little Squirt or tap water, and saturate before placing in your lidded nappy bucket.

Washing

Washing is easy. For the best results from your nappies:

• Use half the recommended strength powder detergent
• Do not use bleach, fabric softeners, or vinegar
• Pre-rinse, particularly soiled nappies
• Suede cloth is stain resistant and any residing stains are best treated by the sun only
• Flushable liners may be washed and reused if not soiled. Flushable liners are not recommended for septic tanks
• Tip – baking soda increases pH, neutralises odours and breaks down residues which may be causing leaks and unwanted smells. Use it in the wash, in the dry nappy bucket, or as a separate wash for nappies with a residual stink, if needs be.

Drying

The sun is the best, however if drying nappies in the sun is not possible gas or electric dryers can be used. Gas dryers are faster and cost less to run.
