Biodegradable Scent Free Wipes

Hi nice to see you again! Are you following me on Twitter? Have you subscribed for email updates to receive the 10 free healthy fruit and veggie recipe eBook? For full transparency view my disclaimer ! Stop back soon!

Hand Sanitizers are used to frequently with children. Everyone is afraid of germs and feel that they need to wipe and clean everything. I can relate. I don’t my child catching a nasty flu bug and being sick for a week. There are times when you are out an about and you need to wash your hands and there is no soap and water. These times might call for alternatives and in my article about triclosan and hand soap I point to many alternatives for staying healthy.

Another option that I’ve discovered is Wysi™Wipe. Biodegradable, scent-free and made of 100% pulp fiber. These little white tablets are easy to store in my purse, diaper bag, car and coat pocket. With my reusable bottle of water, which is always handy, I just pour a little water on the tablet and I have a wipe. It’s that simple. When we go to a restaurant and the children are messy after dinner I pull out my Wysi™ Wipe and dip it in the left over water from dinner. The kids can be wiped up in seconds and without nasty harmful chemicals. Afterward I don’t feel bad about this cloth taking up precious landfill space because it’s biodegradable. Could there be anything better?

Watch me wipe my messy daughter up in seconds with just a tiny bit of water. I’m so excited about these great Wysi™ Wipes I’m giving away two bags of 500! The Giveaway has ended and the following winners were drawn and notified:

10 Must Have Eco-Friendly Green Products

Jenna

Being a germ freak causes me to need things that are not necessarily good for my children or environment. I've been seeking things that will help without satisfaction. Thank you for posting this product! I can't wait to get my hands on it, literally. ;-)

Rose G

These would be GREAT for me!
My daughter is a bed wetter and these would be handy in the mornings, AND I am the personal care giver for my elderly mother that lives with us.

Lily Kwan

I could use the Wysi Wipes because I have a lot of messes to clean up!

Janna johnson

I would love to have these to keep in my purse for when I babysit my nephew. He gets so messy and he's always snotty with congestion. Yuck!!

Thanks for entering me! Great contest!

A Casson

Oh would love to use these for most places in my home im a crusader to keep after germs and cleanliness so the bathroom and kitchen should be a great place for me to use these. Thanks.skyxsky27(at)gmail.com

Marcy Strahan

This could have come in handy the other day.
After waiting for my tuen to go to the bathroom......letting the kids go first.
I was tired of shopping at Walamrt & was not paying attention when I sat on the seat.
Long story short....the whole way home I had everyone esle pee on my hinny.
I jumped in the shower as soon as I got home & threqw my clothes in the washer.
I wish I would have had Wysi wipes with me!

MaryBeth

I hate when my kids get their hands and faces dirty. This would be great

<abbr>MaryBeths last blog post..Blogs of the Month - Hobby Month / KatyDidAndKid</abbr>

Charlene Kuser

I would use the Wysi wipes to clean handles on grocery carts,clean
seat of restroom toliets,on hands,doorknobs,any thing that can be a germ
magnet.These would be so helpful.Please enter me and thanks for
the giveaway

Suanne Giddings

Be clean - get rid of germs... Don't use chemicals! You hear it everywhere! I am so glad there is a safe product that are so easy to use. By the time you get to the last of the wet wipes, they are pretty dry anyways. These would be so easy to stash away wherever you need them. I think I am in love! Thank you for the opportunity to participate in this giveaway!

Renee We

Although I don't allow eating in the car I still need emergency wipes while we travel.

Auriette

If you've ever had a bottle of hand sanitizer leak into your purse, or had a package of wet-wipes start stinking in the back of your car, you'll appreciate these little tablets. They sound amazing! I'd love to keep some at the office, in my purse, and in the car.

J Chaborek

I'd use them around the house & when we go out & about. We usually always take public transit or walk, since it's more earth friendly & have been using wipes that are non biodegradable to wipe our hands before eating while we are out. Would love to try out the biodegradable wipes! I just found out about the biodegradable "dog pick up bags" & I think it's a fantastic idea. I had just told my boyfriend a week or two before finding out that they should make them. I was sick of using plastic bags that would end up in the trash.. & I wasn't going to pick it up by hand, but I suppose, if there wasn't biodegradable doggie bags, then I could pick it up by hand & then use the biodegradable wipes! Thanks for a great giveaway!

Jennifer M

We travel around the city via bus and subway all day, grabbing snacks on the go--these would be great to have in my bag.

Brenda

I have two young children and they are always getting messy. This would be a quick clean up and I wouldn't feel bad about throwing them away.

Heather Mahan

I would definitely get to use these!! With a 20 month old we have some messes. Some in the car, some at home, I would have a baggie full of these in every single room of the house!

Thanks for the offer!!!

Aniela R.

These sound great, I'm not so big on the tons of anti-bacterial stuff out there either.

shareit

everyone could use something nice and clean

Heather MCCormick

would love to give these a try

Jennifer Jozwiak

Angie P

These are cool!! I'd keep some in my glove compartment and my purse. When we are out shopping or running errands, the kids inevitably get hungry for a snack. These are great to clean off the germs before they eat.

joanna smith

joanna smith

I can truly use these Wysi™ Wipes because I have 3 young children, all under the age of 10 and one is a 6 month old, and we also have 2 dogs.

Great for work, travel, and everyday wiping the hands when you can't get to a handwashing receptacle!

Aletha Hendrickson

It seems I'm always wiping up after kids, pets, ourselves, in the kitchen, bathroom, and even in my craft shop. The wipes sound just the ticket. Thanks for the giveaway.

Sheila Pepe

I would use them because they are great to take when you leave home and don't have soap but just water.

Stephanie J.

These look awesome! I love the idea of the convenience without having the guilt over standard wipes. Great giveaway!

kari follett

I love that they are so eco-friendly and scent free! I could really use these around the house and not worry about my kids getting some icky chemicals!

Lena

What a great giveaway Sommer! With 2 kids my list of uses would be long. The one thing that comes to mind is when we are on a road trip and we stop for a stretch/play break then get back in the car and the kids want to eat something… or if we stop at a rest stop. I never let the kids wash their hands their (I use to test rest stop water). Just having some of these in the car would be very handy!

Becca

on top of the usual reasons, we would use these like crazy when we travel, which is ALL THE TIME.

JenniferR

First of all, your little girl is adorable! I love her "Hmmmm"...too cute!

I am a germ freak, and I would love to have these to take with me wherever I go. I am constantly washing my hands, and using hand sanitizer (which still doesn't make my hands feel clean!).

<abbr>JenniferRs last blog post..1-18 CONTESTS AROUND THE BLOGOSPHERE</abbr>

jolene

great for messy kids and still not killing the environment

sandi smith

My yard people have 6 small children and I would donate these to them to help their children fend off nasty bugs.

michelle robbins

I teach special needs students. These would be so convenient to take on our trips, or just around school even.

Debbie Criss

I love that they are enviroment safe and the packing with you. I usually don't dry on paper towells or a hand drier. I hate using up paper towells, and hate blowing germs around. I shake and rub my hands dry. We do alot of camping and fishing. I never feel like my hands are quite clean until I get home. These sound really great and would love to try. Please enter me, thank you

I need this for my car, office, home -- every room and my son's locker at school!

ky2here

Assuage my guilt~

David Clark

We have 2 young children and you can never be too prepared!

Jean F

trying to cut down on germs and dirt, thank you

First baby ('Bella) due March 30 and I've been warned that I haven't seen anything yet when it comes to cleaning up. So maybe these wipes will come in handy. Hope this is a great win for me/us.

Louis Huf

DeeAnn S

This is a terrific idea! I've not heard of these before but would love to give them a try. I'd probably keep some in the car and definately in my purse for quick cleanups. Thanks.

Karen Gonyea

This would be awesome for us - my 3 year old thinks he's a master chef and when we aren't paying attention he'll go into the fridge and pull out a bunch of stuff and mix it up in one bowl :)

Viki S

I think they'd be great to keep in the car for messes (mine and my son's). Also it would be nice to take them camping, much lighter and smaller to carry. The scouts would love em!

Rachel Newman

My skin is super sensitive, and I work around kids all the time. They would be good for me and them.

Thanks for the giveaway!

ladyspy79@aol.com

Veronica L.

With having three kids under the age of 4, it can get real messy in our house in to time flat. I could definitely see myself using these in my diaper bag and just around the house! Thanks for a great giveaway :)

Evelyn

They really promote cleanliness and being green

sarah

it gets real sticky at our place with the kids!

vicky boackle

i have my 3 grandkids a lot and they can get messy.

galena penrod

this sounds perfect for me for the wipes are easily stored and used and biogradable too

willowsprite

Hey, those are great! They would be handy going grocery shopping and wiping down the handle of the cart. Ick, I hate those things. I'm just glad my son is older now and dosen't chew on them.

Frank

In the car for traveling, in the home when the grand kids are around, anywhere because you don't know where may need it.

Jodi

I've never heard of these! I could use them because I have three young kids, and they can't eat ANYTHING without getting it all over their hands/faces. Great for when we're out and about.

Stephanie Bruce

These would be fantastic for our boys, they prefer wipes to tp all the time thanks so much

Christina G.

I could use them because I'm always cleaning up cat messes around my apartment. Thanks for the giveaway!

I could really use these because I already carry around a little ziploc bag of baby wipes in my purse for all of us to use. These would take so much less space.

Bobv

These would be great when the grandkids are visiting.

I would definitely carry these in my purse because I have two kids, who are getting older, but still need to be cleaned up after. Neat.

Autumn H.

My child is always covered in something sticky, these would be wonderful!

autumn398 (at) yahoo.com

Jim

Good Lord, who couldn't use these? They'd be great for the car! Gimmee!

Carol Harrity

My husband had two major surgeries last year and my big fear is that he will get sick again from some germ I faliled to clear away. Also our dog licks everything, which presents another problem. These wipes sound like just the solution I am looking for.

Rebecca

wait... I'm confused are they scent free because there is no cleaning agent on them at all? I guess they work on the principal that friction kills more germs than soap?

<abbr>Rebeccas last blog post..Updates</abbr>

Linda

I just subscribed.

Rebecca

I should get these for our upcoming family vacation! I'm already nervous about how clean the plane and trains will be, especially because my 9 month old won't have gotten all his vaccines yet... I need these, looks like they would be easy to pack too!

<abbr>Rebeccas last blog post..Updates</abbr>

Beverley

I could use these because I have 11 grandchildren!

Angie L

I have a two year old. Do I really need to say anymore?

Megan

I'm crazy about wiping things down....shopping carts, computer keyboard & mouse, phone. I look forward to using them in my diaper bag for my new baby and his dirty surroundings!

audra

I've got 3 babies 3 1/2 & under... I try to avoid all the chemicals so even my 6 month old gets his hands washed w/ soap & water regularly... I would love this alternative to dragging all my babies to the germ-filled loos!

joni chadwell

wish these were aroud when I was raising my son...oh well, they'll work on the grandkids

Anne

These Wysi™Wipe are, I think, one of the best green products I've come across.

I would love to have these for when my grandchildren are around and they attack me with their dirty sticky fingers lol

I would also use them for myself as I sometimes need to wipe my hands but find products on the market too harsh on my skin!

Thanks

Sheila H.

I have a 4 year old and a 4 month old! 'nuff said! :)

susan varney

i baby sit my grandson these would be very useful

adrienne gordon

i'd like them because they have no unsafe chemicals.

I'd use them on my 2.5 year old and my soon-coming new baby. Thanks!

Leann S

I teach pre K , these would come in very handy

Ann Fantom

Shannon

When i'm traveling.

Jeff Ryan

I am about to have my first child (it's a girl). Something tells me I will trying many new things. This one sounds great.

lisa

count me in. I'm trying to avoid germs and chemicals, which seems harder and harder to do with a 17 month old.

Elizabeth

I could use these because I have kids! It's that simple. :)
We're expecting our fourth in a couple months and one can never be too careful with germs.

<abbr>Elizabeths last blog post..Your baby is as big as a huh?</abbr>

Gina Stratos

With three kids, I could certainly use these everywhere. Great for the car, the playground, the market ...... the list goes on.
gkstratos@yahoo.com

MELLISSA

I have 3 boys and I have to constantly wash their hands. This would be a great help.

Renee

I've got a toddler and a preschooler . Seems like once I get one cleaned up the other is into something. Would be great to keep a stash of these Wysi Wipes in the glove compartment & some in my bag!

Scott

Can use these to clean up after the cats.

Ken

This would be great for work. I count cash all day long. Believe me , money is filthy.

:inda White

Anything good for the environment and us is GOOD! I would use them daily!

Katie

This is a timely post for me, as I have been using the wet wipes on my two wee ones when we are out and about--and just yesterday I began wondering what the heck was in these things I was cleaning my children with!

These would be very helpful (I know I'm not the first to say so) and easy to chuck into the glove compartment, the diaper bag, my purse, etc...

erin

Thanks so much for posting about these. I've been using a version that I suspect is NOT biodegradable on and off for a couple of years even though we aren't expecting our first for another six weeks. I've used these when running errands when you get that USO (unidentified sticky object) on your hand and camping but I've wondered how well they break down. I've found them in Asian supermarkets so I'm not 100% sure what the fiber content is.

These sound like a great replacement and I suspect USOs on my hands are only going to become more common when the baby arrives and I assume that they'll be useful for our daughter as well!

Christine

3 kids under 5, I think they'd get plenty of use. I love how compact they are. I could throw a few in my purse and diaper bag.

karissa

I would love these and so would my SO. I would use them for the car for quick clean ups and take them with me to restaurants... i am a germaphobe and I would love to be able to wipe the table down a little bit better.....and of course when I take my nieces and nephews, this would make life simpler and I wouldn't have to use their parents nasty wipes!

Irene

These sound really fabulous! This weekend I was thinking, I wish I had something in my car to wipe up my hands after grocery shopping but didn't contain alcohol or have to go in the trash." These wipes would be perfect! This is a great solution to the battle between being afraid of all of the little germs on my hands from my daily outings but unwilling to buy the hand sanitizer because I don't want mega-germs running around either!
