i have built my own from things around the house. for the chamber i use an empty babies milk powder can, a small hole can be easily poked into the plastic top, and a piece of tube put into the hole, and sealed off with blu-tac and the other end of the tube into a plastic bag with the bi-carb and vinegar, (vinegar seperate in a jug untill mixing time) and taped off.
basically the same as the link, but just using what you have around the home

I haven't attempted to make one. I found that link some time ago and thought I would save it. With my collection growing I will have to look into it.

Use an ols soda stream or soda syphon into a plastic bag tied on the nozzle with an elastic band. Works everytime.

1. Go to K-Mart and buy a large plastic storage container - sealed lid type
2. Go to Chemist or Vet Surgery and buy 50-100 ml Ether
3. Find an old glass jar with a lid - poke 5-10 large holes in the lid
4. Put an Ether-soaked cotton balls in jar, screw on lid and put inside the storage
container with your mice/rats
5. Wait 5 minutes or so until all are unconscious/dead
6. Do with as you will.

Do you end up with any repercussions of the animals having ether in their systems Toxinologist?

I don't know much about how ether breaks down in the body, so I'm just curious.

Good question antaresia lady, i'd be very interested in the answer myself.........

Go to BOC gases
Purchase large cylinder of CO2
Get large plastic container with hole cut in side to suit a rubber hose.
Attach rubber hose to CO2 Cylinder.
Turn on gas bottle
Wait 2 minutes
Remove dead rodents.

How much would a large cylinder of CO2 cost?
