I'm using a plasic trashbag.

: I have a Diaper Champ and I'm thinking a pail liner is in order. And what do yall do about the ammonia!

 

[LoveBaby]

I sprinkle bakind soda in my pail (diaper buddies are cool) and then be sure to add vinegar to the rinse cycle to balance the pH level.

I use a Happy Tushies pail liner and a Bummis. For the money and for what they do, the bummis is a great value!

I just bought two waterproof bags from the camping section at Walmart and a regular old kitchen style garbage can - worked great for me, and was really cheap! The one in the pail gets dumped in the wash along with diapers, and the extra goes in the pail after I spray it out and put it in the sun for a bit.

I have a pail liner from www.sweetbabyboutique.com and it is great! It has a drawstring if I want to close up the smell a bit.

I use a pail liner from Happy Tushies, it just hangs from the door knob. If it starts to get a little stinky I just zip it up.

I rotate 2 Bummis totes. They work great!

I have two MOE pail liners that I rotate. They have a little pad thingy sewn into the seam for deodarizing - I drop about 5 drops of TTO on it and the stink goes away (or becomes overpowered really).

 

[HelloKitty]

I don't use a pail - but I use pail liners alone - they are made by Happy Tushies and are WAY too pretty to hide

They have a little handle thing to hang up and use without the need for a pail.

 

[blessed2bamommie]

mamas. So the concensus seems so far Bummis and Happy Tushies!

I'd like more ideas for the ammonia.

I'm gonna go check out the pail liners.

can you wash those with the diapers?

 

[Liggy]

Have and

my Bummi's.

I actually take an old wash cloth and I drizzle apricot oil on it, and put it between the lid and the pail (Rubbermaid trash can w/flip top lid from Target), so that when I pop it open, I smell that.. and not the amonia. I then just wash it when I wash the dipes, and repeat when I put the bag back in! Also.. I will sometimes leave a pail disk (that I've gotten as a sample) between the Bummis and the bottom of the pail

ooh, i like that idea! i'll try that with some orange oil and a cloth wipe.

I don't use a liner. I just wipe out the pail with a wipe with tto on it and then leave that wipe in the basket. I keep a small pail though and wash often. If I leave dipes around for a couple of days it is a lot.

 

[LeeshaLynn]

I don't use a pail at all. I use an MOE hanging wet bag hung up on my bathroom door knob. It has a little piece of clth to put essential oils sewn inside and I just drop a little TTO & lavendar to cover up the smell.

Yes, that's exactly what I do. I wash the pail liners every time with my diapers.

I'm weird I guess. (go figure, right) I don't use a pail liner. Since all the poo goes in the toilet, i just throw dipes in my pail, which is a large kitchen trash can. After I dump dipes into the wash, I spray the pail with my "cleaning solution" which consists of vinegar, water, and some essential oil for scent. Most of the time, that takes care of smell. I'll either wipe the inside of it quickly, or if it's a super stinky load, I'll stick it out in the sun for an hour or so. I rinse it out really well about once a month.

As for ammonia, the best thing for me is to wash often. Also, NOT having an airtight seal on my dipes seems to keep the smell down some, too. If it starts getting rank, and I can't wash right away, I will put a scoop of baking soda on top, and that will tame it for a little while.

thanks nada.
that's what i wanted to do but i wasn't sure if the bummis bag would shrink or bleed in the hot water.after a recent bad laundry incident i was hesitant to give it a try.

[suz515]

I rotate two bummis totes as well!
I do the baking soda routine as well.

Best,
Suzanne

 

[blessed2bamommie]

I thought baking soda wasn't good for dipes and hard water so I've been skiddish about that.

 

[MTBto5]

I also have the Diaper Champ and have 2 bags that I rotate. I have a Bummis and one that I made of printed PUL. I sprinkle a bit of baking soda in the bottom and sometimes in the middle.
