You can make a chamber using a large cooler and a smaller kritter keeper that fits inside. Put the rats in the kritter keeper and place it in the cooler. Place dry ice in the cooler (outside of the kritter keeper) and close the lid. The rats should be dead within 3-5 minutes. The dry ice gives off CO2 and the rats will just go to sleep then asphixiate. Quick and painless.
