Storing old nappies
So Byron has grown out of his BBH magicalls nb sized - i obviously want to keep the nappies to use on the next one but how do i go about storing them in the meantime?
Do i need to do a strip wash first before storing? and what do i store them in? will the moths eat them lol?!?!
Please help, what did you do or would you recommend i do cloth nappy experts!!
TIA ;)

Um.. I've just washed mine normally and then stuck them in one of those plastic bags that you suck air out of.....
I figure when or if, I get to use them again - I'll do a strip wash then..

Definately do a strip wash first says I. If there's stuff in the nappy fibre that isn't welcome (wee etc.) then I wouldn't want it sitting there for a year or two. Might degrade your materials. I have no proof though!
Air tight storage would be the way to go. Have you checked the NC forums? I recall a similar thread yonks ago.
