How to properly store baby clothes

Baby's clothes are not only particular about cleaning, but also about storage. If not stored properly, it may cause clean clothes to return to a dirty state, which may seriously affect the health of your baby. Therefore, it is crucial to store your baby's clothes properly.

1.The storage of baby clothes should be stored in different categories. The clothes of the same season are best placed together, and the clothes of each season are stored in an orderly manner according to the categories of tops, pants, underwear, coats, etc., which is not only beautiful, but also convenient to store and store.

2. Store worn clothes and clean clothes separately. In order to prevent cross-infection, worn clothes should not be mixed with clean clothes, and must be stored strictly separately. Even clothes that are only worn once must be washed before they can be put back into the closet. Sometimes the baby's clothes are only worn once, and some parents put them back in the closet after drying them in order to save trouble. In fact, this method is not advisable.

3. Dry clothes that have not been worn for a long time. Especially in winter or rainy season, if the baby does not wear certain clothes for a long time, parents should rummage through the clothes and take them out to dry in good weather, so that the sun can drive away the moisture and bacteria on the clothes.

4. Refuse to place insect repellent. Some parents are worried that bugs will damage their baby's clothes, so they smartly put some insect repellants such as mothballs in the closet. Although in this way, the clothes are safe, but the baby's health may be affected. Moth balls contain a highly volatile and toxic compound—naphthalene, which is absorbed through clothing, passed to the skin, and then penetrates into the blood, destroying red blood cells, causing acute hemolysis, anemia, and severe jaundice, even life-threatening . Therefore, repellents such as camphor balls should not be placed on baby clothes when they are stored. In fact, there is a simple way to prevent your baby's clothes from being bitten by insects: when the weather is good, take out the clothes that are not worn out of season to dry in the sun.

5. Correctly choose storage tools. In order to prevent secondary pollution, the baby's clothes should be stored in a clean wardrobe after washing and drying. It is recommended to use a wooden wardrobe for the choice of wardrobe, because wooden cabinets have good air permeability, which can allow the clothes to ventilate and play a role in moisture-proof . However, the choice of wooden wardrobes is very particular. The wooden wardrobe should be made of pure solid wood, and plywood, blockboard, particle board, MDF and other boards should not be selected, because these boards are made of wood scraps and chips, and they will release a lot of formaldehyde. The wardrobe made of this kind of inferior board stores the baby's clothes, and the baby's clothes will absorb formaldehyde, which will affect the baby's health. 

When we buy a wardrobe for our baby, we can pull out the drawers and open the cabinet door to experience it. If you feel discomfort in your eyes and throat, it means that the formaldehyde content is seriously exceeding the standard. At the same time, before placing an order, ask the merchant for the quality inspection report of the wardrobe, and carefully check the results of various testing items such as the formaldehyde content marked above to avoid buying inferior wardrobes.
