i once reported someone had allowed their horse to mess outside my elderly parents front gate

When I lived in a village near a riding stables there was so much horse poop in the road that drivers started using it as a roundabout.

These days councils in my neck of the woods don't spend much on street cleaning. Mine has an online method of reporting littering, flt tipping, etc. so every once in a while I make a video on my phone, upload it to YouTube, and send them a link. It does usually get cleared up then.

There is a mobileapp - https://www.littergram.co.uk/ - and they report direct to some councils but I'm not sure mine is one so I just carry on with my roll-your-own method.

Neither of which are urgent jobs.

so it is fine to leave a fridge freezer so a your kid could climb in and not get out, not to mention the gasses

If you are genuinely worried about that, and can't remove it, then unscrew the door hinges.

How much additional "rat tax" are people prepared to pay to ensure their dead rat problems get promptly dealt with?

prosaver

i would put it a carrier bag and dump it in a street bin,
..or just buried it in the garden..
poor ratty
this is what Kenneth Williams would look like if he came back as a rat

Just for clarification, is the OP a joke or serious?
If i found a rat in my garden the first thing i would is bag it and bin it .... Not start making phone calls.

I see you are consistently obnoxious and not just on the odd occasion.
