Which of these mouse traps methods do you think is most inhumane?

[Cryptic-Game]

Don't you hate when people use inhumane methods to get rid of rodents? These creatures do not need to suffer. Of course there may be times you have to kill them as releasing them after a catch is unlikely.

People usually don't care about humane methods but will go to extreme methods of torture. Why do you think they do this to these creatures?

Sticky glue boards

Poison

Spring boards

There is one that they crawl into, and then it shoots a lightning bolt through them. I think that one is pretty humane. I don't like the idea of the glue boards. Doesn't seem humane to me.

[Cryptic-Game]

Yeah. If I saw a mouse on a glue board, I'd put on gloves and release the mouse.

[Cryptic-Game]

I heard one squeaking in pain and this man didn't even care. I tried my best to get the glue board and mouse separated but it was not easy.

[CuriousMufuxka]

Glue traps. The poison doesn't work, snaps sometimes.. Electronic is the way to go. Instant. Why would anyone let a rodent just be stuck?

[Cryptic-Game]

Yes. The glue traps has the mouse or rat stuck and dying from starvation as the article points out. It is very inhumane and electrocution is instant death.

Glue traps disgust me. Okay, it's an invasive parasite and has to die; fair enough. But to make it suffer so? One good swing and crack, and it's dead within seconds. Making it writhe and struggle over hours or days is just awful. If I recall correctly, several places have banned them outright, on the grounds of cruelty.

I'd like to believe that no one on this forum actually enjoys any animal suffering but I've had to deal w/ them and his has been my experience mice can be a pain in the ass and dirty. I hate seeing the glue boards used, I think that's too much like torture. Poison isn't too bad of a way to go but for a homeowner or tenant with mice/rats its a bad idea because the rats get sick and crawl into a tight place, most often walls until they die and then decay which smells horribly, The old fashioned ones that break their necks are reasonably humane but I've heard mice get caught but not die and try to shake the trap off sp then you have a crippled/maimed mouse that you need to deal with. There is a type you didn't show that has a battery operated electrified metal plate that the mouse steps on when reaching for the bait. This has seemed reasonably humane and the one I use if zi don't catch and release.

Doesn't matter.

The rat/mouse council isn't negotiating a deal in the human international courts to ensure it's members carry less than 3 diseases into your home, at any one time.

Nor is there a deal in place that they will not target human baby food, and will only target desolate properties and not inhabited ones.

You seem like the sort of dimwit that would let weeds grow in their garden. Then try and get your money back at the seed store, as you blame the plants for not being "strong enough" to get on with the weeds.

[Cryptic-Game]

This is clearly inhumane. It is torturing the animals.

[ChocoBrownieMonster]

The glue trap because it's torture trying to get off it and starving to death for weeks.

[Rangers]

Skip all of that nonsense, get yourself a snubnose.357 or 38 special revolver and load it with ratshot and you can stop worrying about being inhumane, it'll make a mess though.

if your cat brings back a mpuse or rat into the house the chances are the animal has toxoplasmosis

[SphynxUK]

I much rather my cat or dog caught one.
