Can you seal up the compartment, Pete? Hatch, access panel? If so, an option to flooding it --- which I've done selectively without damage and with good result, but it's slow --- would be to seal it up at night when it's cooler, take it out into the sun in the morning, let it warm up, and wash it down with a sponge and soapy water. Look for bubbles in the soap as the air heats and vents.
