Absolutely! Activated charcoal can absorb odors really well. Just place a few bags in the car and let them do their thing.

I’ve tried several products, but nothing beats a thorough clean. Make sure to check under the seats and in the glove box for any hidden messes!
It’s so true! I had no idea how much stuff was lingering under my seats until I moved them.
Another good method is to use an ozone generator. They’re super effective at eliminating smells. Just make sure to air out the car afterwards!

Ozone generators sound great, but are they safe for all car interiors?
Generally, yes, but always check your car’s manual. Some materials like leather may need special care.

Good point! I’d hate to damage my leather seats while trying to eliminate the smell!
If you’re worried, maybe test any product on a small area first before doing a full application.
I once tried using coffee grounds to absorb the smell. It worked decently, and at least my car smelled like coffee!

That’s a clever idea! A little caffeine kick for the drive, right?
I appreciate all these tips! Dealing with odors can be so frustrating, especially when you think you’ve cleaned everything.
For real! Sometimes a lingering smell can make you wonder if you really got rid of all the mice!
To get rid of mouse smell in your vehicle, first clean the interior thoroughly. Use an enzyme-based cleaner to break down the odors. Don’t forget to check under the seats and in the trunk for any hidden nests.
Great tips! It’s also important to regularly air out your vehicle and keep it dry, as damp areas can attract rodents.
Preventing mice is key! Always store food in airtight containers and avoid leaving wrappers or crumbs inside the vehicle.
Exactly! Sealing up entry points like weather stripping and vents is crucial too. Mice can squeeze through surprisingly small gaps!

Consider using essential oil repellents like peppermint or cedar wood. Mice dislike these scents, making your vehicle less appealing to them!
I love that idea! Just be sure to reapply them every few weeks for effectiveness.
Regular maintenance is also key. Keep your vehicle clean and check for any signs of infestations periodically. Prevention is easier than dealing with a smell later!
