Get the funk out

My Yeti cooler smells like butthole...  My niece didn't wash it out like she promised and when I opened it the other day I almost puked.  Rancid beef and fish in putrid water.  Anyways, I tried my best to clean it out with soap and warm water.  I really fucking scrubbed it with a dish scrubber.  It still smells like ass though.  Any ideas on how to get this funk out?  I spent too much money on it to trash it.

Use some bleach or something with bleach in it.

Open it up and leave it out in the sun for awhile.

Fill with cold water. Dump half a bottle of Clorox. Don't ask me how I know this.

Simple Green FTW

And when it's all fresh and clean again, store it with the latches tucked inside to prop the lid open.

Bleach.  Both chlorine and sun.

I cleaned out a refrigerator full of meat and nasty stuff in a trailer with no electricity for months in the desert out by Ridgecrest.  I sprayed massive amounts of Lysol into the fridge during the fridge-douche and after.  It worked.

Close the lid and go fishing. 

Don't all coolers smell like that?

Yeah, mine are permanently rank. 

When they get too bad I leave em open in sun for a day or so after hosing out.

 

I do both actually... the clorox treatment and sun shine. 

At least I do if i'm going to use that cooler for food again. 





For fish, eh... fuck it.

Anything with either ammonia or bleach ...And then I use lemon juice and let it sit open

dont mix the two.....either or, but not both.....you will burn and learn.

Baking Soda and Vinegar! DONT MIX it, Just toss a Baking soda spread on the bottom. Then, put a vinegar in cup. put it inside then Close the lid leave it for 24hrs. Use bleach as the last resort.

Fill with a gallon of water and a cup of bleach. Close the lid and slosh the solution around so all the inside surfaces are coated, including the lid. Wait for an hour and rinse it out. Air dry in the sun.
