Hi all,
I am cleaning a fiberglas fuselage of mice infested residue and smell in the cockpit area only.
The smell is now reduced but like to eliminate it all together.
Any suggestion would be welcomed.

Regards
Udo

OZIUM - which is an aerosol spray. You can find it at Wal-Mart or PepBoys,
etc. If you're lucky, you'll find it in both a small and large size. The
stuff really works. It'll kill smells that could gag a buzzard.

Nature's Miracle, a liquid product available at any pet store. Neutralizes stain and smell of
urine/feces on any surface (says the owner of 3 dogs).

This is definitely a concern in Pacific Northwest (USA). For example,
a vacuum cleaner might spread the virus, while mopping it up with wet
towels might be safer. I'd suggest contacting the local health
authorities about the proper methods if your area has this virus. It
cost us more than usual for an annual on our Blanik because of the
extra precautions needed to clean out mice residue.

I remember reading about the problem being particularly serious in the desert
southwest - especially in the four corners area. That's not to say carefulness
isn't indicated elsewhere .
