If you're going to start rejecting things because even one animal died in the process of making them, you'd have to say goodbye to much of modern medicine too.

I would argue at some point they would need to reject modern living as a whole. Go build an A frame in the woods. Forage for berries and shit. Many aspects of the ways we live cause deaths. Like cars hitting animals. So if a single animal is too much, I have a feeling they should really be following that mindset.

The amount of animals killed by a modern farm tractor combine passing through is enormous. Its just that we don't count "vermin" like that life. And most people who are vegan will never see it.
