F/T Problem

Yeah, I know . . . just call me squeamish. I don't like killing them; I can't even kill a cockroach, and I loathe them!!

If I had CO humane killing equipment, maybe I could do it . . .

use your hands and thumbs to snap there necks or just slam there heads against a wall, tbh, anything thats quick and painless is humane, but thats mho

Slamming their heads against the wall is not a guaranteed instant kill, unless you go hulk on them. It's also not pretty, they tend to spasm and bleed EVERYWHERE.
Cervical dislocation is easy, and its quick. My old roommate and I had a shipment of dry ice get canceled on us and ended up doing almost 400 rats in just under an hour and a half. It's quick and painless, but again not for the squeamish. Easiest way is Dry ice, you can order it pretty cheap, put it in one of those critter keeper plastic containers on its side, inside a sealed rubbermaid (put the rat in the rubbermaid, not the critter keeper) Easy Co2 chamber for pennies. Don't touch the dry ice with your hands, use gloves.

why not just cervical dislocate? Its 90% quicker than gassing and requires nothing but your hand and a paintscraper/screwdriver ect
