Not COOL!
Hey, can anyone tell me please how to kill a living rat 4 my BP? I tried the "Pencil Trick" on a Pinkey and that wasn't cool AT ALL!!! Its tail ripped off and broke its front legs! 
Thanks!

I put mine in a miniature sized pillow case and give them a good whack on the toilet bowl.
Cervical dislocation was also a disaster for me when I tried...

Just put it in a bag or sack...and whack the bag against a hard surface.

Grab the mouse or rat by the tail and whack its neck on the edge of a hard surface. Instant kill. When Ive got lots of mice to kill, it's simple and painless to just whip them at the concrete floor in my reptile room. Seems kinda cruel but theres no suffering, another Instant kill.

I use two methods. If you are just doing one at a time Kyle is right.... nothing like a good whack. Quick and painless. But if you have a lot to do nothing beats the dry ice method.

if it's a small one, well even an adult mouse you can just flick it real hard in the head that will do the trick. rats take the pillowcase method

What's dry ice and how do you use it to kill rodents?

hearing that makes me really angry and makes me sick.i dont like seeing anything suffer, i just put it in a bag and whack it really hard. why go through so much just to kill a rodent for your snakes?
I personally will never enjoy killing these little guys. when i purchase them and look them in the eyes sometimes makes me wanna cry. But i gotta do it... and quickly.

Pia--dry ice is a special kind of ice that sublimates...that means that it doesn't melt, it goes directly from a solid chunk to evaporating into a vapor.
It releases CO2 gas, which can be used to kill rodents by suffocation. Within about 30 seconds, they go unconscious. It is a quick and painless death. To do this, you put the rodents and the dry ice in an airtight container, and wait.
