I already knew this. When it became apparent that I'd need to do pest control, I did some research and figured out what was the path of least cruelty, being fully aware that zero cruelty isn't an option. I relocate them near to an old dump that people still use illegally. I figured there's more places to shelter there and plenty of good around. Yes, they have a higher chance of dying than staying in my cosy house. But it's not like I'm dumping them in a desert, and when they do die, it'll be part of the natural food chain, providing a meal to an owl or a fox. If I could be sure that a spring trap would kill instantly, I'd choose that instead. I would never choose poison or glue traps.
