Cloth diaper strip- unfiltered vinegar? Help asap please

posted 25th Feb
Getting ready to strip our diapers for the first time. How do you do it? I was thinking the baking soda and vinegar way but I dont have distilled vinegar only unfiltered. Would this work? How much do you actually use on about 20 diapers? I also have bleach but im not sure if these alva diapers (prints as well) allow for that. Thanks for any help!

I use bumgenius and just used their stripping instructions. They say no vinegar. Did you google instructions for Alva?

No bleach for sure. I would only do hot washes because unfiltered vinegar doesnt clean nearly as well as distilled so it'd be kinda useless to use it. I'd use blue dawn dish soap instead since you have alvas

Thanks everyone! I think ill just do two hot washes and strip them next time. I wont use bleach, or the vinegar and try to find the dawn dish soap! I heard your not suppose to use the Dawn Ultra which seems to be all I can find at Target and Walmart! Ill keep looking. thanks girls.

(I tried looking for Alvas washing instructions and they dont say much except to wash under 86 degrees)

Yeah, they're all different. Bumgenius says you can use bleach once a month.
