Does anyone know how to get vomit smell out of car vents?

Post by Ex-California »

I got the flu last week and ended up projectile vomiting all over my windshield when I was driving home from work. I also fainted from a combo of the fever and not being able to throw up at a different time. Fun stuff, thanks children.

Anyway, I got most of the smell out except something must have leaked down the defroster vents, now when I turn on the heater, it smells. I put in a new cabin air filter, but that didn't help really.

Can I make a solution of vinegar and water and spray it down the vent?

Febreze works wonders. That stuff is OP.

Dryer sheets are pretty good for absorbing odors, hope your feeling better.

Tape a Febreze dryer sheet over the vent.
