nappy bucket !!!!
I normally wash every day but with being sick this week I didn't get any done on Tues or Wed. I went to do the washing yesterday and when I pulled the nappies out of the bucket there were MAGGOTS crawling all over them! Eeeeeeew! I almost threw up!
Thank God for Dettol Rinse which they are now all soaking in, and Purell which I cleaned my hands up to the elbows with after handling them.
Ewwww, ewww, ewwwww!

Euuuuurrrgh, damn flies and their maggots! Hooray for Dettol and Purell though, makes everything feel so clean and hygenic after experiences like that one eh!

Edited so that I make sense

Yeah - we only have one nappy at the moment So it just goes straight in the wash... been looking out for a good bucket, but the postage is ridiculous to order one in (none of the sites I want to actually order stuff from stock them ) and briscoes has nothing - the one lidded bucket they had wouldn't even stay on. Anyone know anywhere in wellington that would sell decent buckets?

I've taken to just throwing them straight in the washing machine...and if they are pooey rnsing straight away.

I'm sorry but dettol and purell wouldnt have cuti tfor me. I would have had to throw the lot out. I just wouldnt be able to face them again.

the best bucket i found was a pedal bucket - from the warehouse i think - where there was a removeable inner with a handle... it lasted over 3 yrs till toby stood on it one day and managed to tear the lid off... the inner bit made it easy to clean and transport the nappies to the machine.

Mind you i too rinse off the pooey ones and the especially smelly ones...

Emma - eewwwwwww!!!!!!!!!!!!! Poor you hun, I think I would have cried and demanded my DH come home from work to deal with it!!

I always rinse my poo ones first and wash every morning so my small unlided nappy bucket does just fine. It's in my double garage which is usually open all day so there's no problem with smells.

Ewwwwwwwwwwwwwww!!!

oooh - will be checking out the warehouse then I have a roll and a half of flushable liners sitting around so I'm using those for now, but (no matter how much DF begs) I'm not buying anymore after this, and will have to sort out rinsing.

Try plastic box or payless plastics as well.

My fav one (with the impossible to lift off lid) was actually a persil bucket which came from Mitre 10 or something similar.
