I try to wash in Hot water with tide, detergent booster (24 mule team), and non-chlorine bleach (Clorox 2) within 12 hours of ‘wetting’, if possible. If I can’t do a regular wash, I at least try to do a ‘quick wash’ or a rinse and spin as a minimum. If the diapers begin to smell badly, I substitute non-chlorine with chlorine bleach, though I try to avoid chlorine as much as possible. On occasion, I’ve had to wash twice, without drying in between. The detergent booster seems to help with whitening and odor removal a lot. I hope this helps.
