There’s a smell which keeps comming back in the warm weather.
September 3rd, 2006 by Anna
Warm weather is breading season for bacteria, and it’s the bacteria you can smell when it gets warm.
The extremes of heat or cold may have killed the bacteria, or you may have used a disinfectant to kill them, but the food for them is still in your car, unless you remove this source, the chances are that the smell will always come back.
Lets suppose for a moment that you have spilt milk in your car. The first thing you need to do is wash the area down to remove as much of the milk as possible, but chances are that you will never get it all. Disinfectant and anti-bacterials will work for a while but they will eventually wear off and bacteria will be along to feed on the milk. Many products you can buy just mask the smell, often by masking the odour, but these too will eventually wear off.
The most effective way to deal with the problem is to use an enzyme product. Enzymes don’t effect any living thing but they will eat the milk, this causes the bacteria to starve to death (because it has nothing left to feed on) and once the bacteria has died, the enzymes eat the bacteria. So, no milk, no bacteria, and no more smell - there is no need to cry over spilt milk.
