How to get the fish smell out of a microwave?

My son heats a fish in the microwave oven and now we have a very strong fish small every time we open it.

We tried everything – cleaning and spray etc.

 

Do anyone have any idea for us except for buying a new one?

 

Thanks

Try getting a microwave safe bowl, filling it with water, and adding a cut lemon or some drops of lemon oil. Put it in the microwave and turn it on full power for about 5 minutes. When you open the door the microwave should smell of lemons!
