Get rid of the urin and poop soaked substrate and use newspaper instead.

You should not be cleaning your rack "once a week" You should simply replace the newspaper when soiled, checking daily. If you do this, not only will your snake live in a clean, healthy environment, but there also won't be any stink at all noticeable outside the tubs.
I use newsprint and clean the tub when she goes to the bathroom. But I still use the deodorizer at the end. Sometimes the smell of poop doesn't go away on its own, especially when she leaves it on the Accurite cord (which is all the time )
