when i was living at my parents house i would always get feild mice in my car over the winter unless i prepared it with dryer sheets or something to keep the mice away (which actually works for a short time).
well last year (oct 11) i decided to do a manual to auto swap on the car, and did not expect it to take me 15 months to complete, in that time i worked on a bunch of other peoples cars, and bought a house of my own. you might be able to see where im going. i never did anything to mouse-ize the car.
fast forward to a month ago when i was finally able to work on the car again. i pulled the back seat out and because the inside of the car stinks of mouse urine, and there are poop droppings all over the trunk floor. (i guess i dont have it sealed off as well as i thought).
when i pulled the seats there were a few huge nests mainly between the back rests and the trunk divider. in the past i never let this stuff sit so long, so the stench was never really noticable.
i cleaned everything up, sprayed everything with bleech to try and disinfect everything.
my question is is there anyway that i can try to remove the smell without actually buying new foam? will baking soda do the trick? or oxy-clean stuff?
anyone have any of this experience?
thanks
