5. Extras (RnG ammonia, biokleen, etc.):  I spray diluted biokleen on really bad poop diapers.

6. Pail & liner:  Step trashcan from wal mart and a planet wise liner.

K...so LO isn't here yet, but this is what we have set up/planned

1. Detergent for CD:  Planet powder, although AZ has hard water so we may switch CD detergent to Rockin Green

2. Detergent for LO's clothes: Planet powder

3. Dryer balls (where you bought them, what size, how many): No dryer balls, we're just going to line dry, gotta take advantage of AZ weather :-)

4. Diaper pail deodorizer: none

5. Extras (RnG ammonia, biokleen, etc.): although if it gets super stinky we may do the vinegar addition

6. Pail & liner: bought a 13 gal trash can from target and put a planet wise diaper liner in it for home, we also have 2 of the planet wise wet bags for when we are out and about

1. Detergent for CD: RnG Classic Rock

2. Detergent for LO's clothes: Seventh Generation Delicate Care

3. Dryer balls (where you bought them, what size, how many): I'm in the process of making my own wool ones. We have rubbery nubby ones and I hate them.

4. Diaper pail deodorizer: RnG pail deodorizer. 

5. Extras (RnG ammonia, biokleen, etc.): Ecover fabric softener for any fitteds that might be getting a bit on the not-so-soft side. It revives them so well! But its not to be used on anything with PUL. I use it on some of our regular laundry too.

I use vinegar in a Downy ball in our regular laundry. It works as a fabric softener and gets things extra clean. 

Those are the only "extras" I use.

6. Pail & liner: We use hanging wetbags. I got custom XXL ones my Monkey Foot Design on Etsy. They are fab!

We use rockin green for our cd's and all free and clear for everything else. We add a splash of oxyclean stain fighter to calvins clothes because he gets them really dirty most days. lol
