Every dozen or so washes or if we have a run on rashes like yeast, which is rare, even with sometimes 4 children in cloth diapers I substitute vinegar in the rinse cycle with some essential oils. If yeast is an issue I use tea tree oil. If I just want to freshen things up I usually just use lavender EO. The added freshness, anti-microbial effect, and plain good smell is nice. So far I have never had any ill effects on my diapers. Try it, you may like it.
