No, they pretty much stink all the time. I can open my back door and tell if one is out there in the dark.

I ran one over once, and I ended up having to trade the car in. No matter what we did to clean it, that smell would always come back on a humid day.

The dog got sprayed once. Man, was that bad. We must have bathed her three or four times in one day, and we still ended up at the groomer to get rid of it. Nasty stuff.
