3. Fold back your laundry tabs (if any) or fasten the velcro on the diaper. This is to avoid the diaper from being tangled during the washing process.
4. Keep it in the cover bin/pail or wetbag. When it is time to wash, throw everything into you washing machine.
   
5. Ensure the water level can completely cover the diapers.
6. Use half of the recommended manufacturer detergent volume. Avoid using fabric softener or bleach.

Why?

The actual reason behind this is because enzyme attack on dynamic stain & poop stain. If the diapers are not washed thoroughly, some of the enzyme will stay on the diapers and will be reactivated when the diapers get wet. Reactivated enzymes will attack baby’s skin which lead them to rashes.
