Peracetic acid diluted to 3% kills everything and is food safe.
Spray it over the inside and then shut the door and don’t go in for half an hour!
Then swill down and it will be super clean and smell a bit of vinegar.

Turn it off, if you can, ( take what carcases are in it out ) let the temperature rise until the suckers are active.
Spray in a can of fast acting bug spray.
Turn it on for long enough for the fans to spread it around and leave overnight.
Next day brush it down and wipe it out with an approved disinfectant.
Put the carcasses back in and repeat as required.

As @shakey jake said DE which is amorphous silica would work, it's also the only amateur use product that I can think of, try and keep it dry for optimal use
Get a hair dryer or hot air paint stripper at them.
Or the resuasable hand plumbers torch, I use one for more uses than plumbing!

I doubt they would attract ticks, glue boards would stick them ok
Nice ! Interesting….what is peracetic acid normally used for ? Ie is there a commonly available branded product that can easily be bought for non licenced use , or is it something a bit top shelf ? In the south east of the uk Uk ( where I predominantly hunt) I never have such problems , but last year when in Germany I had a few rather laden deer. Thing is, in Germany most cleaning products in the shops don’t go much beyond the performance of organic diluted vinegar…..

It’s used as a commercial kitchen cleaner and for sterilising operating theatres, but farmers use it for killing bacteria in their barns after mucking out.
One of my farming friends introduced me to it and we use it on anything where we need to kill everything off.
Just don’t breathe the fumes (cos it’s acidic!) and wear gloves and goggles.
Ah, Perfect, Thanks for the reply . I will ask some friends about it who own an Organic dairy farm where I hunt in Germany, indeed one of them has had Lymes disease for several years so is probably well informed on what’s allowed and works there. I will post my findings when I’ve spoken to them; if they are of use to others . ..
Kindest regards, Olaf

This is exactly the answer i’ve been after. Food safe, it kills ticks and doesn’t destroy stainless steel walls of the chiller.
I’ve just purchased a 30 litre bottle and will do spraying over the weekend.
Many thanks for your suggestion.
