    I don't use biological as it would make us all come out in rashes.

    i use bio and its fine with us. It depends on your skin. I always used non-bio when L was a baby.

    It used to make my willy itch, when I was a teenager. Doesn't seem to make any difference these days... or maybe I just 'rub' it regardless... :)

    Biological (bio) washing detergents contain cleaning enzymes developed from natural sources that are very effective at removing a wide range of stains at lower temperatures. Only small amounts are needed and they are biodegradable. Non-Bios don’t contain these enzymes.

    Actually Bio detergents are a fair bit worse for the environment than non-bio.
    They do get stains out better though.

    The environment thing is a trade off, because the bio ones tend to do a better job, have less detergent in them, are used at lower temperatures and get stuff cleaner. You take you pick of the higher temperature, more detergent, more washing or enzymes. But since most people don't engage brain the bio stuff is worse because they use the same amount as they would non bio, at the same temperature.
