this explains it better than i did
HOW DO THEY WORK?
When baby’s diaper becomes wet, the wool wicks the moisture away from the diaper by absorbing it. Lanolin, a natural oil that comes from sheep, keeps the urine from leaking back out of the wool. Over time, the lanolin needs to be replaced (roughly every 2 to 3 weeks) to help the wool maintain its super absorbent abilities. This is done through a process called lanolizing. Lanolizing cleans and restores the lanolin to the wool cover.
In between wears, you air out your wool soaker by laying it flat to air dry. Air-drying is usually enough to eliminate any odors and wetness that are in the wool cover. If poo gets on the diaper cover, you will need to lanolize immediately to ensure cleanliness.
