I heard that you can use Dawn dish detergent to wash diapers, is this true?

Fuzzi Bunz Frequently Asked Questions
I don't recommend Dawn detergent as many versions contain oils and enzymes that will make the fleece on the diapers repel liquid. Any type of dish detergent is also very harsh on the diapers and will make them wear out. You can add a very small amount of Calgon water softener if you have hard water. CALGON? Water Softener boosts the power of your laundry detergent by removing hard water minerals that trap dirt into fabric fibers.
