Schrödinger's Attic-Dwelling Rodent

[westernind]

A hypothetical rodent hypothetically dies in your attic. You suspect the corpse is the source of a rather unpleasant pong seeping down the stairs. You can't face investigating before going on holiday tomorrow.

Do you reckon the pong would persist for longer than the two weeks you're away?

Leaving it for two weeks may well result in returning to a far worse smell - especially if this heat continues. And unsorted hypothetical corpses may attract hypothetical flies leading to hypothetical maggots...
