Cloth pads are a wonderful alternative to disposable products. They are very comfortable, easy to use, provide dependable protection, cost effective, and earth friendly. Cloth pads can be used by women and teens even on their heaviest days. Many women report a decrease in cramping and reduction of flow when they switch from tampons to cloth. When you choose cloth, you are reducing environmental waste, supporting small business and women's industry!

When properly cared for, your pads will last many years. You can store your soiled pads prior to washing either wet or dry. We recommend the dry method, particularly if you have small children to whom buckets pose a drowning hazard. Presoaking in cold water will reduce staining on light colored pads.

Wet Storage Method
Keep a covered bucket or pot in your washroom. Fill it halfway with cool water (you can add baking soda and/or essential oils to control odor). Toss soiled pads into the water to soak and change water daily.

Dry Storage Method
Store soiled pads in an empty covered bucket or waterproof cloth bag in your washroom.

At the end of your cycle, empty bucket into your washer, add some towels to make a full load, and wash with detergent and cold or warm water for the longest cycle (gentle agitation, if available).

You can wash in hot, but hot water often sets stains and is hard on fabric. We recommend primarily warm or cold washing. For pads with wool content, washing in cold will minimize shrinking and felting. You may wish to rinse occasionally with hot water to sanitize and remove detergent build-up. Hot washes should also be used when you are fighting vaginal irritation or infection. Please do not use chlorine bleach on your pads. It will quickly deteriorate the fabric and is highly toxic to all living things (including you!).

Line or machine dry at moderate temperatures. Do not use fabric softeners in the wash or in dryer sheet form. Fabric softeners will cause your pads to repel rather then absorb moisture. You can lay clean damp pads in a sunny spot for Mother Nature's natural stain remover!
