A nappy bucket that stays fresh between washes is a practical problem with a practical solution. This powder sits in the base beneath the liner, working continuously to neutralise odour rather than masking it. The bicarb absorbs, the salt helps distribute it, and the Tea Tree and Lemon provide genuine antimicrobial support — not fragrance. It takes five minutes to make and lasts two to three weeks.
HERO INGREDIENT — Bicarbonate of Soda (Food Grade) In the enclosed environment of a nappy bucket, Bicarbonate of Soda works as a continuous odour neutraliser rather than a masker. It reacts with the ammonia compounds produced as urine breaks down — converting them to neutral salts that have no smell. The powder format means it works passively and continuously without any intervention between changes.
WHAT ELSE IS IN THIS RECIPE
Cleaning Salt — helps distribute the bicarb evenly and adds mild antimicrobial properties to the deodorising formula
Tea Tree Essential Oil — provides genuine antimicrobial action in the bucket environment — not for skin contact, bucket use only
Lemon Essential Oil — adds a fresh citrus scent and additional antibacterial properties — complements Tea Tree rather than replacing it
