well as it pretty obvious the smaller the area the more it will smell and quicker and there really is not much you can do aside from changing bedding early and often, I have a snake room about 15x15 and it has nothing but colubrids in it which I feed A LOT...so yea it smells and the only thing I can really do is open the window with a small fan. I have used one of the air purifiers that are the tall "air ionizers" but it does nothing but keep the room cool. I guess it is just part of keeping animals.
