A dirty diaper can have a variety of smells, most commonly resembling ammonia or a barnyard.
According to information on cloth diapers, the odor depends on what's in the diaper and how well it's been cleaned. Here's a breakdown:
- Ammonia: This smell is caused by ammonia, which comes from leftover urine in the diaper.
- Barnyard: This smell is caused by feces and indicates that the diapers are not being cleaned effectively. This smell is more noticeable when the diaper is warm. (08-Sept-2023)
