Let’s say I hypothetically had some mice pee in some plastic components that cannot be properly cleaned in any realistic way. Is it possible to heat it up to “cook off” the mouse pee nastiness without actually melting the plastic?

    I think it depends on what you’re going to use the plastic component that were sullied for.

    Food Tupperware? You’re SOL. It’s porous and now contaminated. A plastic computer component? Disinfect it with diluted bleach.

    I’m not sure heating mouse urine is a good idea, it certainly won’t smell pleasant, I can tell you that.
