Bandage care

i bandage every night.   How do i care for the bandages?

Marple

I use a laundry bag and when I'm wrapping I have two sets of bandages.  I throw them in the rinse cycle of a regular wash every third or fourth day depending on their age and how much stretch is in them.  I dry them flat on a thick towel on top of the dog's wire cage.  It's just big enough on top to fit them all.  My dog doesn't mind sharing.

thx marble.  I guess the older ones need washing more frequently.  You do not use detergent?  Warm or cold water?

Marple

I figure with the rinse water there is residual detergent.  They really don't get 'dirty' wearing them at night.  Yes, the older ones loose their stretch easier but they do last quite a while.

I washed mine (when I used wraps) in a mesh bag. on 'Delicate'.  I used 'Ivory' or another one that I can't think of the name but is mild for baby diapers.  I dried on "fluff' with a bath towel or 2 and as soon as dry took out and rolled immediately.

My LE Guy was very emphatic to NEVER use fabric softeners.
