Info..

We recently in past year or two were dealing with the hantivirus
here in Kansas.  Advise from State Health agency was to spray the
possible mousey areas with Windex, or other agents with amonia in 
it.  Then if possible take object out into the sun for UV exposure.
Wearing rubber gloves and face mask.  Seems the virus is spread 
through the "dust" from the dried mouse urine.  

Have used the technique several times.  Virus is only carried by 
limited types of mice.  Ordinary house mouse is not a carrier.
