I’ve just brought a car bomb off Amazon the 2 chemicals mix and it releases a fog so with the engine running and blowers on recirculating it kills bacteria in the car. Not tried it as of yet but review look good only down side is the car will smell of chlorine for a few days

Sonax (and I’m sure a lot of others) has one which doesn’t smell like chlorine but rather ok. I’ve used them twice, they take away a lot of the odors. If you need heavy duty cleaning of mold, bacteria, etc. - get ozone treatment but it’s advisable to let a professional do it.

I have used a few there are plenty around that dont smell like chlorine but you do need to follow the instructions as some need to be left overnight before driving.

I use them every year, usually I suffer hay fever, its miserable. I run the aircon on recirculation to help and I find at the start of the season it can be worse than open flow air. Run one of these bombs and zircon on recirc is fixed. Discovery 4 3.0 HSE 2010 year. I like it a lot. Now with winch 😂

A friend who does this for a living says just to run the AC on but at full heat on a slow fan. The heat will do as good a job of killing the bacteria as the deodorizers.
I do it every now and then and have never had smelly ac. Plus it's free. PAGODA
