    These baggies are X-pensive and not just that but the amount of garbage I'm contributing by not re cycling is also bothering me. So, say I have a zip loc
    baggie for all my undies (clean of course). Since I'm never putting anything in there but
    clean and laundered items - does it matter if I reuse it over and over? I was also considering this - perhaps I should micro wave the empty zip loc baggie between uses just in case one lone sticky egg got transferred or the little hard to see babies?

    I reuse the bags that I use ONLY for clean clothing. If the only thing I ever put in them is clean clothes straight out of the dryer, I don't see why it isn't safe to use them multiple times.

    Hmmmm, that microwave idea sounds good- maybe I'll try that on my most paranoid days when I don't trust nothing! Or I'm suspicious of it for whatever reason!

    I spray mine down with 91% alcohol. I wonder if that's a good strategy ...
