Euthanizing crickets?

[nlopez]

Hi everyone. I am about to go buy a new set of crickets (usually about a weeks worth), and so I want to clean out the keeper they stay in until they are fed to my pacman. However, there are still a few leftover from my last trip to the pet store (I like buying more before I have none, so I never actually run out). I'd like to know if there is a way to euthanize the two or three little guys that are left over nicely? I thought about releasing them at the local park, but was unsure of the legality etc of that, and the only way I know of killing them is starving or drowning them . Any advice? Thanks in advance!

Put them in the refridge , everything in them will slow down and stop .

I was just going to say, if you want to "euthanize" them... feed them to your frog! lol
