boiling hemp inserts?

I just got my Hemp Babies insert and doubler, as well as my loopy-do. Can I boil them instead of washing them 5 times? I think I boiled my Thirsties hemp inserts before LO was born...

    yes, I was told you can boil for 20 minutes instead of washing them 5 times, which is what I did with my Thirsties hemp and they work great.

    Do you boil with plain water, no detergent in it at all?

    Thanks for asking this! I did not want to have to wash my Thirsties hemp inserts 5 times. I will just boil them!
