[QUOTE="Whitelightning777, post: 127301, member: 26980"] I found this thread by accident and it's old but I think I have a point to contribute. We all know that CO2 is used as a knock out for first aid etc. Put it in a ventilated catch cup within a larger container elevated. Add baking soda and vinegar. Seal it up airtight and then freeze it an hour later and overnight. Logically that should eliminate pain. When mammals are put to sleep, it's usually anesthetic and then something to stop the heart. This is similar. With mature males, I'm researching whether or not removing the bulbous pedipalps can enable them to survive the fatal ultimate molt or might kickstart them into a longer lifespan if their body tries to regrow them instead of dying.
