Rodent killer

[chad]

i want to build my own gassing machine. does any1 have any blueprints/simple ideas for this? preferably a long run cheap option.

dont wanna have to spend like 20 bucks every time i wanna nock a few rats off

lol u said the same thing to me on both sites, yeah, i know i have that link already, its too long winded for reading at night time, i just couldnt be bothered. i want more pictures of setups, more hoping for a soda stream kinda set up...

i read about one on this site where you used vinegar, bi-carb soda in bags and a hose to connect the bag with the animal and the newly created gas. do a search and it will hopefully come up

[chad]

thats the one that rennie gave me.

i made the gas chamber, ill post pics later

I was once told that there was a reason God gave rats and mice long tails................

[chad]

i dont like cruelty to animals, so i dun wanna whack them, and i dun wanna dirty my walls either thankyou very much. im pretty sure mum would go skitz, shes already making hittler insinuations about my gassing plans.

this way was free (-the old sodastream and tupperwear that i went to town on) and its by far the most humane, and the cleanest

i'll have to set up one of them soon will be heaps easyer.

I'd say get a small tub, not too much bigger than the things you want to kill, then buy a soda syphon (not sure how much) or a cream whipper, buy the "Soda bulbs" from the supermarket and make a small hole in the top of the container, small hole in the bottom, and inject the *chamber* with the bulb machine

Works out to about 60c per kill, i'm sure one cartrige would do alot more than one rodent if it was in a big enough box, BOC gas & gear charge about $150 per year bottle rental and $30 ish for refils, this would be ideal for larger collections but if you only have one snake or two then i'd say the soda bulbs would be more cost effective, as a box of 10 is $6 - $9, and its also basically mess free.

oh, I read up and saw i wasnt the only person with the soda bulb idea, I don't feel as special anymore

hey, great link rennie
havnt seen anythin that goes into so much detail about doin it as humanely as possible. im sure lots of people just end up choking the rodents to death without that info, might as well just use ur hand to chocke em if ur not gassing them in the right concentrations

i use a baby's milk formular container, with a hole poked in the top with a piecs of tubing in the hole running into a bag with bicarb and vinegar.
