Wash all diapers together like this -Spray Biokleen stain and odor remover on possible stains -Cold rinse -Wash on hot with 1oz of Biokleen detergent -Covers go in mesh bag since they have aplix - Remove all PUL, covers and inserts - Ecover softner on prefolds and fitteds 3. Hang Dry covers and Pockets. Throw everything else in the dryer with dryer balls. Pockets will go in the dryer for a few minutes at the end of the cycle. No problems for the most part, stink issues once or twice when switching to a few detergents. Wicking when we used Ecover softner on inserts. But for the most part this works for us and we have a variety of diapers. Question... Does anyone use Dawn here and there? Or in every wash?

I never thought of using a mesh bag to separate the covers w/ aplix! Great idea!!
