How do they do it

I believe it's illegal to feed a live animal unnecessarily to another animal in the UK, by the way. "Unnecessarily" meaning you have to prove it is at death's door via starvation to justify it.

Factory-bred mice are usually put in CO2 chambers where they fall unconscious before passing away in their sleep. Home-bred mice may be less humanely dispatched, but for the most part live better, less crowded lives. Pre killed mice are either gassed or given a sharp blow to the head/tail pull which sounds violent but apparently is so quick they don't even know it happened by the time it did.
 
There are lots of ways. This picture is more suited for a rifle. I'm working on a mouse launcher for the shotgun enthusiasts.
