Yep, I've had to dig dead rats out of the walls in my attic.  There was no question that those rats were dead, because my nose lead me right to them.  I don't think anything in the world smells worse than dead things. 

A few weeks after we moved into our house we had a torrential downpour after a bit of a heatwave.  Two baby seagulls were washed down onto our forecourt.  Worse thing about it was they must  have been dead for about a year (there were baby seagulls on other roofs at the time) as they were pretty decomposed and crawling with maggots.  Scooping them up with a shovel into a bin bag was one of the most unpleasant things I have had to do. Man, the stink!!

Never had to worry about that- our cat does a good job of making it clear his kills are dead. Sometimes the hard part is getting it to stay in one piece for cleanup ?
