More than likely, dead rats are minging things (as are live ones).
We live not too far away from a brook and one of our (not very clean) neighbours has lots of animals in their garden, guinea pigs, rabbits, huge dog and an aviary. Consequently, we get the occasional rat. Luckily, my next door neighbour is very elderly so he calls the council and the rat man comes out for free (we think they actually have 2 nests, 1 under the slabs under our shed and one under his shed ). I am paranoid that my spaniels will eat the poison or a dead rat so the poison gets put under his shed with a few traps.
If the minging neighbour bothered cleaning up his garden then we wouldn't have a problem at all - especially as me and next door neighbour have squirrel and rat proof bird feeders!
