This is how I handled a mice nest on top of the cabin air filter.

> 2013 Chev. Equinox, 20k miles. First thing this morning noticed bad smell in the Equinox with the AC on. Pulled out Cabin air filter at lunch time and it was nearly clogged with hair, some mouse poo and a pile of maggots. Inside the filter housing it looks like a lot of hair. I’m going use a shop vac to clean out as much as I can from the filter opening. I am not sticking my hands in there. I didn’t see any obvious ways in, the cowl screen is properly installed. This has never happened to…
