    What to do about a bad, lingering smell

    Good day all, could anyone help me on how to get rid of a nasty smell left behind by a resident mice in my 2015 Tundra? Looks like it got in the truck through the floor somehow and lived between the carpet and insulation... I think. The smell is definitely from the floor under the passenger seat. I've treated the affected area as much as I could with DP interior cleaner I had on hand as well as vinegar but this is a good one. I don't really feel like taking the seat off but if I have to I will.

    I did manage to catch the little bugger and have not seen any other traffic in the last week. But the mice pee and poo smell is pretty bad... it was in the truck for a while.

    Thank you
