Alysha, you can bet this is a situation in which I would be using bleach. So sorry this happened!

Hi all! I have a mayjor problem. The past few weeks I have had several huge orders for whole diaper stashes. My parents kindly offered to takey boys camping for a few days to allow me to catch up. They did not have a water source where they were, so my cloth diapers did not get rinsed. They just got back today and much to my horror I found maggots (is that how you spell that?) in my bucket!!!!!!! awwwww! And of course other than my few fitted my whole stash was in there! Any help? I have washed and washed in hot, cold, soap, vinegar, and essential oils. Not sure if I can ever feel ok about them to put them on my baby!!!!!

Hi Autumn,
Sometime when we are travelling, we had to sleep at the hotel, about every hotel/motel had landromat at their place, so why use disposable diapers even at the hotel ??.
I even see an hotel where there is no washing machine where we can’t wash diapers to offer us to wash them with their laundry … the girl at the hotel desk was using cloth diapers too …

It is very easy traveling. We go camping a lot and have had no problems. I use the gaint Zip lock bag to store used diapers. We have two babies in cloth diapers, which is a lot of diapers after a long weekend.

I agree, almost no question for us whether or not to travel with cloth! The beach was our “toughest” last year, and it still proved easy!

This works if you’re driving but not if you’re flying anywhere. Especially with the new baggage restrictions.

Just getting ready for my own trip and was doing the debate….really wanted to use cloth, and plan on it, but of course making sure I can wash while there, I think I’ll be a day short of dipes to be able to skip washing. Love my Leslie’s Boutique wet bag…need the large!
