The repellant has garlic oil, dried blood, egg solids in it. I tried hosing it down, sprayed Renuzit super odor neutralizer and set up air fresheners. A little odor still remains. What else can i do? Should I try pouring bleach on it, scrubbing it down and hosing off, then spraying X O odor neutralizer and setting up odor absorbing gels?

Will bleach damage concrete?

I am planning on using plastic coil pipe connected to a gas water heater with a circulator pump. Has anyone done this? What should I do or what shouldn’t I do?
Any tips? Thank you.

I’m guessing the panels have steel rods in them, is it ok to cut a hole in to fit a window?
many thanks
