** Please note: domestic borax and ordinary sanitizing powders should not be used on Velcro or waterproof fabrics

Some of these soaking and washing methods may not be suitable for some nappies - if in doubt contact me and if I don't know from experience I will contact the distributor on your behalf. 

I accept no responsibility for damage caused by the use or misuse of this.

USEFUL TIPS

A small plastic bin (about 20 Litres) with secure lid may be more convenient than a conventional nappy bucket, just double the solution.

 

Thanks to the WEN for this info
