Good story, but very disgusting. I can only imagine the smell of burnt rat feet.
It seems like every mission has a few rat infested apartments. There was one mission apartment in a pretty nasty area of Taipei that made a great hangout for the neighborhood rat population. For some reason, the elders who lived there had never taken any steps to evict these rats.
When I moved in, we used every commercially available product to fix the rat problem and over a period of about two weeks we were cleaning up dead rats, three or four a day. The smell was so bad we ended up moving shortly after we fixed the rat problem.
