Quickest way to dispatch a mouse

[Rhythm Junkie]

My fucker flatmates put down those rat glue traps and I just walked into the kitchen to find a wee mouse stuck fast. I hate killing things but I can't stand the squeaking and struggling. Whats the best/quickest way to put it out of its misery?

[The_librarian]

A six inch nail, and a ten pound sledge hammer.

Just let it go outside?

You don't need to kill it, you cruel bastard.

[DoNotResus]

Is there not a way to make it un-stuck and hten release it in to the wild, Born Free style?

[Shannow]

Option i go for when Lamarr catches one and doen't understand the whole 'killing your prey' thing

Wrap entire thinng ina liberal amount of kitchen roll
Place into a couple of plastic bags
Accquire a brick
hold brick above the condemned rodents appoximate location
decrease the distance between brick and floor as quickly as possible

Its a glue trap. Once they're stuck it's not intended that they come loose again.

That said, my flatmate has just taken mouse, olive oil and a spatula to the park over the road

Put a pencil behind its head and press down and pull its body sharply backwards thus dislocating its neck and instant death. They use this method in labs allegedly.

The aforehmentioned blunt force trauma is also a good un but requires precision to achieve instant death.

My brain and its serial killer tendancies are running wild with ideas at the moment, but aye, generally speaking breaking the neck, mashing the head to a pulp will do the trick, dancing round it with 'Stuck In The Middle With You' playing in the back ground and dousing it in petrol is probably going to prolong the process slightly

Dunk it in some water then chuck it in the bin.

Panic over - seems olive oil gets the wee mouse free. He/shes scarpered off to live happily in Clissold Park.
