use a sharp stick to kill it, than feed it to your cat or dog, recycling is important.
Call your local animal control. They will probably kill it too, but then you do not have to do it I suppose.


Boiling water is pretty cruel. If you are going to kill it make it fast. Next time if you plan on killing it anyways don't use a ';humane'; trap.


Or you could toss it in the trunk and drive out to the country and let it free.
Well, I would never have used a live capture trap in the first place so I would not have this problem. Since you do, however, I would suggest you shoot it with a pellet rifle. If that is not an option, put the entire trap in a plastic bag, add baking soda and vinegar, seal the bag up and gas the little bugger.
why kill it? keep it as a pet, did you ever see the movie ';BEN'; with micheal jackson, how can a greeny or enviroMENTAL kill a poor rat.? you are a rat deny-er!!!!!!
HEY WHY DO U WANT TO KILL IT, WHY NOT DONATE IT TO ONE OF THEM CHINESSE, OR INDIAN RESTAURANTS, COMON FOOD IN THOSE ESTABLISHMENTS
