In The Walls... Part Deux

With nothing in my vacuumed closet, I smell nothing.
Maintenance people never come. It's getting late and I can't sleep on my bed with the piles of clothes.. so back in the closet they go. I smell each pile of clothes as I put it back in its place.

Plop a pile of luggage and random stuff in the corner and WHIFF. eww. Luggage comes back out. Instead now I take each piece of luggage and random junk one by one and return it. ewwww two maggots crawl out of bag. Bag goes outside, maggots go flying over the railing.

Bag 1 is ok.. next bag.. ewww.. two more maggots! This time I call my neighbor over to check out these huge carniverous creatures. A few seconds after being transferred to the pavement, one already has an ant in its mouth and is crawling back towards my apartment. No way. Over the balcony you all go.

One by one the luggage goes back without further incident. Not again. A maggot is crawling on top of a two binders. Binders go outside, maggots flung off the first binder. AHHHHHHH!!! Fur! sticking out of binder #2!!

I run back over to neighbor. Mystery solved! We both near vomit as he opens the binder, revealing a small (4" long?) rat. Must've been dead for at least a week. Sick. I grab the binder and run it to the dumpster. The small bag that was under the binder is dumpster-bound too. Just in case.
