How to remove a fish smell from the freezer

refrigeratorsmell

Yesterday, the electricity was out for a while and I guess some of the fish in my freezer warmed up and juices started flowing out of its bag and into the vent. Now there is a fishy scent creeping up from the back of the fridge. Is this something I can just wait out or should I do something about it? I did clean out the freezer and everything looks immaculate in there now.

After cleaning it well, put a piece of coal in the freezer; this will remove any smells from it within few hours, maybe a day.

I used to put a mid-sized piece of coal inside the refrigerator all the time. This was a piece of advice from my mother and always worked.
