How to wash and care for your Kanga Care items:
The number one thing to remember when caring for your diapers, is they are just another load! There is no magical solution that you should need and no crazy tricks.

2. Hot wash - cold rinse: only add half the recommended amount of detergent for the appropriate load size.
3. Cool rinse
4. Tumble dry low or lay flat to dry in indirect sunlight.
Detergent Recommendations
1. Original Tide Ultra
2. Gain
3. Ecover (powdered, not liquid)
Please do not use laundry additives such a bleach, Oxiclean, borax or Bac-out to wash your Kanga Care products. If you have questions about our washing instructions, please ask! We are happy to help!
What about the Poop?!
Breast Fed Poo:
You do not need to to do anything. Breastmilk poo is 100% organic and will dissolve in the wash.
Formula Fed and Solid Poo:
Simply "plop" that poo into the toilet and flush! Solid and thicker poo will not cling to the fleece - a little residue is fine. "Peanutbutter" poo can be removed with some toilet paper and flushed away or sprayed off with a diaper sprayer.
*Did you know that even disposable diaper companies post to their packaging that all solids should be disposed of in the toilet before tossing the diaper? Our landfills are NOT designed to handle human waste. Flush the poo!
