Try hitting them head first. If done correctly they don't feel a thing and are dispatched quickly. Other people will suggest gassing with CO2 but if you are only doing 1 or 2 every now and again, the brick wall is the way to go. |

Unless you are keeping and breeding them, in which case Gregory's method is what I have used in the past.
