Getting Rid of the Stench of Death
I had a mouse die in an electrical light switch box in my house. I found the mouse, and it couldn't have been there for more than a few days - no decomposition, no insects or maggots. I removed it whole, scrubbed everything I could reach with disinfecting wipes, and hosed the whole thing down with Lysol spray. The smell is still there, and hasn't improved at all.
Will this go away with time? Any suggestions on how to make it go away faster? Thanks!

Are you sure there isn't another dead one?

I'm sure there's a Zen Haiku about using the stench of death as a tool for enlightenment. Seize the moment.

I've read of Zen being described as a bird in a tree, but a dead mouse in a stinking electrical box doesn’t portray quite the same image.
