I never have up until this week - I have now found dead mice in 2 oil cans and they were both separate purchases! 1 can STINKS cause the mice weren't fully 'skeletized' yet. Anyone have any advice on how to clean? I have been rinsing it with dawn dish detergent and water but it still stinks and has hair and residue inside...! Those damn eBay sellers...

They were skeletons in one can so it wasn't so bad, but they were all black and gooey in the other and it stinks. They are going to be barn cans, that's for sure! I am going to have this smell stuck in my head for hours!

I had one on a antifreeze can a couple days ago. I used wax and grease remover it worked for me good luck.


Always looking for grizzly gasoline stuff, or any Montana gas and oil stuff.
