Step-by-Step Guide:

Stains on cloth nappies, particularly those from poo, are inevitable as part of the parenting journey. However, with the right approach, you can easily tackle these stains and keep your cloth nappies looking brand new. One effective method for removing stains from cloth nappies is using oxygen bleach, a gentle yet powerful stain remover that is safe for both whites and colours.

 

  1. Dampen the Fabric: Begin by dampening the stained fabric with water. This helps to prepare the fabric for the stain removal process.

     

    1. Prepare the Oxygen Bleach Paste: Take a scoop of oxygen bleach powder and mix it with water to create a paste. The brand of oxygen bleach doesn't matter, as long as it contains the active ingredient.

     

    1. Apply the Paste: Apply the oxygen bleach paste directly onto the stained areas of the cloth nappies. Ensure that the paste covers the stains evenly for effective removal.

     

    1. Work the Paste In: Gently work the paste into the stained areas using the scoop or your fingers. The oxygen bleach may generate some heat upon contact, so it's advisable to use the scoop to avoid direct contact with your skin.

     

    1. Let it Sit: Allow the oxygen bleach paste to sit on the stains for approximately half an hour. This gives the oxygen bleach enough time to penetrate and lift the stains from the fabric.

     

    1. Wash Off: After half an hour, wash off the oxygen bleach paste from the cloth nappies using water. You'll likely notice that the stains have significantly faded or disappeared altogether.

     

    1. Repeat if Necessary: If stubborn stains persist, you can repeat the process until the stains are completely gone. However, in most cases, one application should suffice to achieve satisfactory results.

     

    1. Wash and Dry: Once the stains are removed, wash the cloth nappies as usual and dry them according to your preferred method. You'll be amazed at how bright and clean your cloth nappies look after this simple stain removal process.

    THE REAL MATHS

    Work out what disposables are actually costing you

    The average baby goes through about 7,000 disposable nappies before they are toilet trained. At roughly 50c each, that is $3,500 — and every one of them is still sitting in landfill. Move the sliders to see your own number.
