Terriers are definitely high class in the murder department. I have a 
pack of them at the paddocks and another at the house, and despite the 
fact that we have 3 species of rats around, there are never any around 
the horses or the house. More important for the parrots, the weasels 
don't try to visit. They are fast and clean. Snap! a broken neck or 
back and bye-bye varmint. No blood. No mess. Instantaneous. Definitely 
the most humane way. No playing about like cats.
