White vinegar is pretty good at removing, or lessening
organic smells.  Soak the item throughly, then let
dry.  The vinegar smell might linger for a bit, (but I
would say vinegar has a less offensive odor than mouse
urine).  If need be you can follow the vinegar
treatment, (after it has dried) up with open
containers of baking soda, (not directly in an air
stream though ;-)  


Cheers,
