a) landfill bin
b) food waste bin
c) garden compost
Recycling clearly not being an option.

Assuming it was trapped not poisoned can you chuck it on the garden overnight for fox/owl/badger to scavange?
-
What you definitely don't do is sling a whopping dead rat that appears on the back lawn into the main wheelie bin just after its been collected. The rat then starts to rot and sticks to the bottom. When the wheelie bin gets tipped upside down into the bin lorry two weeks later, the decomposing rat carcass sticks stubbornly to the base of the wheelie bin, glue on by corpse-glue. You have to hold your breath while opening the wheelie bin for the next two years.

I love this forum.
Fuck how obscure or obscene an activity, occurrence or profession might be; one of us is an experienced practitioner.
All hail the disposer rats!

That thread is genius. Almost as funny as the mum's net Center Parcs discussion (do not look up on a work computer).
Since when should you not put bones in food bin? We put chicken bones in there all the time.

Likewise, if you have a really rotten black egg, don't just throw it in the wheelie bin to get rid of it, for similar reasons. I think the smell may be even worse, I've never known anything quite as bad. 6 moths on, the smell hasn't quite gone.

On the other channel they are trying to get rid of a live rat. We haven’t got the where with all to get rid of a dead one on here.

A live rat is much easier. Just open the door and let it walk out. :)

Back to the OP.
When I had mice in the welsh cottage I was living in, I’d just throw the corpses into the hedge outside.
As Nai said - whatever carnivorous creatures were about would snacflw them up within the hour.

I was looking after my parents' farm for a week last summer at the height of a rat infestation. I spent many happy hours with a Jack Russell and a shovel clearing them out of the barn.
They all went on the roof and the red kites had them in no time.

d) into the stuffing mix for the Christmas turkey
Waste not want not. Better get in practice for those post March 29th food shortages.

Surely, the freezer would be more prudent?
At least until the blackouts start...

I did consider that, good source of protein.
As for chucking them in the garden, the only thing that might go for them is a gull round here, and most likely my daughter would find it first, bring it in and try to revive it, even though it's head is clearly pancaked. She's going to make a very optimistic vet one day.

Pop em in a Jiffy bag and send them to someone you don’t like.

What's your address again? :)
