    I find a couple of tbs of bicarb in a strip wash help immensely with the stink.

    And sun. It kills everything up here.
    But, I know that you guys down there don't see much of that.

    Strip wash as required. In between goes, though, couple f drops of eucalyptus oil in the rinse cycle.

    But I live in the sun too.

    I think it has been caused by drying on the drying rack inside over winter, it has been a horrible winter, but I can feel spring coming so back on the line we go at our last house I was able to pop the drying rack on the back verandah in the the breeze/sun and just move under the cover if the weather turned but we don't really have the ability here (yet, we will by next winter hopefully)

    Thanks for your help!

    Only two now, my middle girl has been TT'd since Easter, she still wears night nappies though. Back to 3 when baby arrives as I wonder if my oldest will ever understand toileting.
