WTF? I need to order some diaper pail deodorizers and they smelled SOOO good and were compostable!!
So, now that those are no more (unless you have a secret source, please point me that way), what do you all use? Not chemically smelling.

Re: No more Pail Pals?
Fri, April 11, 2008 - 9:50 AMi don't think they even work that well, but i out of desperation and pure laziness, i just bought a two pack of stick ups. *hangs head in shame* ... i was thinking of just throwing a box of baking soda in the can, though.
in the sack i use for the cloth diapers there is a terry cloth tab that i drop essential oil onto -- usually lavender but sometimes eucalyptus. i could probably douse some on a terry scrap and toss that into the bottom of the diaper champ, too.

Sun, April 13, 2008 - 10:05 AMThe only thing like that i've tried is a lil teatree essencial (sp?) oil. just a few drops.
I've been washing all the poops diapes in the toilet asap, so only pee and lil poops goes into the pail..... -

Re: No more Pail Pals?
Tue, April 15, 2008 - 7:10 PMtee tea oil can be totally caustic, fyi. So I think you'd have to extra extra extra rinse with that method.
I use a dry pail too, but the ammonia smell from the pee. OH MAN! I try my damndest to only do dipes every three or four days now that I'm working full time.
I did the Lavender / tea tree on a spongee thing and put it in the top of the pail in the "deodorizer slot", but nothing seems to keep that de-peer ability like the pail pals.
grrr. -

Thu, April 17, 2008 - 8:01 PMI'm sorry, let me rephrase... cineole (an ingredient in tea tree oil) is caustic, but only if it's concentration is higher than 15% in the oil itself. If you buy good quality tea tree, it shouldn't be a concern because the density of the cineole won't be higher than 15%.

Fri, April 18, 2008 - 6:24 AMyeah- having an allergic or irritating skin reaction to straight tea tree oil is really common. Google "teat tree oil" and "atopic dermatitis". *BUT* it's only with the straight oil. No one's ever reported a bad reaction when it's been mixed into an oil base, or anything to dilute it.
