Cloth nappies washed on a low temperature also really help the environment.
Does washing on a low temp actually clean properly? I always thought that wsashing on low temps wouldnt kill of all bacteria.
You can add a tablespoon of napisan which kills bacteria at temps as low as 40 degrees. I never wash mine higher than 60 and that's only if I've not done a wash and have a big load to do.
Cat I just use warm water with a drop or two of lavender oil with my wipes. You can make up a spray to take out with you, but most places I change Ella in have sinks so I can just use warm water with them. I save so much money by not buying wipes anymore, plus it's kinder to her skin.
Well Im guessing at 11 posts already over night that there is a number of people interested in the topic. If its a sticky then general chatter would do fine. If its a section there could be a bit on baby products, a bit on shopping (food, cleaning products etc), a bit on around the home, (utilities envionmentally friendly ideas you can do around the home)?
What would you prefer Cat? If I made a section could I leave you in charge to make sure it's used?
Would this also include Mums who used cloth nappies?
Oh yeah sounds good. If their is a baby products bit that can be used for cloth and bio nappies, home made wipes, eco friendly baby products (like my eczema cream lol) etc. Then their is a really ome for all the stuff on cloth nappies seeing as their are lots of followers!
Yeah okay go for a section on the shopping bit and call it 'Environmental Products and Services' or something like that to cover baby products, general shoping, services and envionmentally friendly tips and ideas.
Tescos have just started doing a range and sell it alongside Ecover. I'm pretty sure it's made by the same company....
tesco ones are pretty crap, and the way they made the packaging you use alot more of the product, Ecover is great and smells scrummy, its more expensive then the other stuff but works really well and if u have a health food shop near you, you can take your empty bottles to them and they will refill them for a reduced price.
I am trying to be very eco friendly, the cleaning company i work for uses only ecover stuff so i use all their range and the proffesional range. i would recomend them to any one.
