Something's dead in Chimney?

I've come back from a week long work trip and there is  this weird smell in the house.

Moira calls me and says that there is something stuck in the chimney and she isn't coming home until it's gone.

I turn to the Yellow Pages in search of a solution, and I begin to traverse the categories:

Where: Australia > New South Wales > Sydney Metro > Category: Home / Real Estate > Maintain / Renovate > Pests > Pest Control: [filters:Possums,Odours]

I turned up a single entry:

Shore Pest Services
Family Run Business With Over 30 Years Experience In Pest Control.

St Ives NSW 2075
ph: (02) 9449 2948 
Pest Control

I call the dude, he comes over and extracts a dead possum from my chimney. urrrg!!! There's a bunch of white maggots too.

No photos, but trust me - it was a dead possum.

I call Moira amd she can come back home now.
