Over a month ago I noticed a can of bug spray that had leaked inside my car. I believe it was inside the arm rest between the driver's and passenger's seat. We moved the can around before noticing that it was leaking. Ever since it's been a chore to find out exactly where the smell is coming from and to remove it. It seems to be more prevalent when the heat is on.
I've tried the following solutions on the seats, carpet, and inside the glove box and arm rest, to no avail and I'm looking for some alternatives:
- Leather cleaner
- Mixture of white vinegar and water
- Air freshener
- Onion
- Activated charcoal bags
