I would recommend that you use some sort of exhaust fan. You'll need it during the summer. For a small 10x10 area I would setup a bathroom exhaust fan. Readily available from Lowes, Home Depot, etc.

I would run an exhaust fan. In fact I would probably even run some duct work in one or two wall cavities and have and have a fan that draws air from the floor since the odors produced by rodents tend to settle towards the floor.
But if you can leave the door open with a fan running a couple of times per week then the floor vent is probably overkill.
