My wife and I live in a warehouse in Toronto. Mice are common, but rats are not. We saw one, and it seemed to be using our bathroom sink as a watering hole. Leaky faucet...my bad. So occasionally a mouse dies in a wall, gets stinky for a couple of days, and if it's a small one, goes away quickly. The staink started, and we hoped for a quick small stink. Lasted a few days, but was wafting so we figgured...better than full on stink. My wife one day looked at our dog Taco (little dog) and asked where the rat was. He went under the couch, and came back out again. Repeated it twice. Looked under the couch, and there was dead rat boy! About half the size of our dog. So probably 4-5 lb rat.
