    If you mean these then just drop one in and it dissolves when wet

    Make sure you don't put one in the flushing water tank. Sometimes they don't disolve completely and can make a guey mess. The water pump wouldn't last very long.

    In the waste cassette why not use the liquid, rather than tabs or sachets.

    I find that Lidl Bio Liquid tabs are easy to use and to store in the washroom.

    Yep- they’re the ones I use and have done for 3 years with no issues and improved’ breakdown ‘ Only use in the waste tank. I use highly scented fabric conditioner in the flush tank.

    I would use the same amount as I would ‘pink’ I think I got my last lot from Lidl- there are various flavours- 3  different ones I think- I got the blue liquid- there also a white and I’m not sure about the third- pink? I did follow advice of having Zo Flora in a small spray bottle for the bowl and that is very good- totally sweet smelling.

    Using laundry liquid sachets in the toilet waste tank??

    I keep looking for the April 1st date on the post.

    Why?? Do they work better or smell better or just work out cheaper

    I’m surprised you’ve not heard of it before, Stephen. It’s been a hot topic here for several years and a lot of folk use it - not me, though. 

    I think price is the attraction.

    Yes, I was wondering the same? I know Aldi have just had some Blue Diamond blue toilet tank fluid for a reasonable price, seeing as the unpleasant people who stole my caravan took everything from it except the awnings I needed some new fluid anyway.

    Yes on all counts!

    Plus easier to carry and use and readily available when abroad too.  And of course ideal for your laundry too, no need to carry 2 products.  Also ideal for sites which require you to use "green" toilet fluid.

    We have been using the Thetford or Elsan sachets for many years, so much easier than the liquids, but quite expensive at about 50p per go.  Bio liquid laundry pods from Lidl are £2.65 for 20 at the moment, we are on our third year of using them.

    We use just plain water in the flush tank.
