Mouse smell
Does anyone have a secret formula for getting the mouse smell out of a pickup? All the fabric, rubber. Etc, is removed. Just metal body to deal with.

Re: Mouse smell
I think a citrus based cleaner may be your best bet, it’s a nasty smell to get rid of.

Re: Mouse smell
Try clorine the kind they use for pools and much stronger than store brand Clorox.

Re: Mouse smell
Once all cleaned out with a cleaner of choice, there's a product called "Nilodor" that will get rid of the smell. Comes in a little bottle of concentrate, use a few drops in a spray bottle of water and spritz around.

Re: Mouse smell
My wife had an old pissy dog and cat. The enzyme stuff was a marriage saver.

Re: Mouse smell
Chanel #5. A highly complex fragrant blend of flower oils including rose, jasmine, lily & iris. Mixed with a warm base of sandalwood, vanilla, amber and patchouli oils. This stink coverup satisfies Chanel's request that it smell like a bunch of flowers instead of just one. Claimed to make any mouse smell more tolerable. 8^)

Re: Mouse smell
It'll dissipate over time. Keep it open and aired out. Lot of good suggestions and solutions.
Fragrance is like taking a big dump in a small bathroom and spraying some fragrance. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GUfS_2UGftg |

Re: Mouse smell
Put an open cookie sheet with used coffe grounds on it - that will take away the mouse-house smell.
THEN - put a bar of Irish Spring soap under the seat & under the hood - that'll keep the varmits from setting up house in the future... |

Re: Mouse smell
I bought a used pickup that reeked to high heaven last year. After trying everything to mask the smell with cleaners that didn't work, I bought an Enerzen high capacity commercial ozone generator. Stuck that in the truck and let it run several cycles and it no longer stinks.

Re: Mouse smell
Odo-ban. Eucalyptus based cleaner. It is amazing.
Vinegar is my other thought. To be followed by bleach. Best of luck. Sent from my LM-K500 using Tapatalk |
