There's a dead rat in my garden, what am I to do?

[Mcnumpty2323]

I don't see what the problem is

Just pick it up with gloves on or with a plastic bag and throw it over the fence/wall into the garden next door

thats what the people next door did

Do you think it died in your garden?
Grab it by its tail and fling it as far as you can.

Very rare for a rat to died somewhere like in the middle of a garden

They seem to normally go off into some hidden place and die

Got it something like this.

There's a dead rat in me garden what am I gonna do?
There's a dead rat in me garden what am I gonna go?

I'm gonna dispose of that rat that's what I'm gonna do,
I'm gonna dispose that rat.

When you open your mouth you don't talk, you cry
And you give GD the blame, But when they catch you up,
They will shut you up. And you got no one to blame

There's a dead rat in me garden what am I gonna do?

As per the title, just noticed a large, dead rat in the middle of the garden.

I'm very squirmish and not sure what to do. So I am turning to GD.

1. Should I just leave it in the hope that local wildlife will dispose of it?
2. Man up and throw it in the bin? If so, which one; General Waste or Food waste?
3. Pick it up and sling it elsewhere?
4. Or leave it as it is and let it rot and decompose?
5. Let the dead rat own my garden and never go out there again?
6. Take GD's advice?

For those who say "pics or it didn't happen."

Spoiler: Dead Rat, RIP

Dead Rat RIP, on Flickr

Mods, if this image is too much please let me know I'll remove it.

7. Leave it on a random doorstep with a note nailed to it informing them that this is what happens to rats.
