Cloth Diapering

Bumgenius - do you bleach them?

Sometimes I've left them too long in the wash and they get the mildew/musty smell. I find if this happens with other laundry that I have that we use bleach. Can you do that with the diapers?

Re: Bumgenius - do you bleach them?

  • BG actually recommends you bleach once a month. That's what I do.

    Care Instructions

    Fasten hook tabs to laundry tabs on slot cover. 
    Pre-wash cold. Wash hot (100F/40C) with bumGenius detergent
    Extra rinse. Line Dry.
    No laundry additives. No fabric softeners. 

    Use 1/4 cup or 60 mL bleach in the hot wash once per month.

  • Might be a dumb question...but do you bleach the covers too, or just the inserts?
