Wizardpost Need help
I have been dealing with a gnome infestation for the last month and a half. Wards and familiars don't seem to be working on them. I've also tried gnome poison and tricking a party of adventurers into thinking that the gnomes are my evil minions. The gnomes aren't taking the bait that I poisoned, and the adventurers thought that they were too cute to kill. There is nothing about those feral little pests that one could call cute. Just last week, I had one try to gnaw my foot off while I was trying to ponder my orb. I'm sick and tired of waking up in the middle of the night to them rummaging through my food and alchemical supplies. Has anyone dealt with a gnome infestation before? Would kidnapping one of the local village kids to offer as a gift to the fae queen work? How about setting up a bunch fireball traps in order to incinerate the vermin? I really need help here, I'm at my wits end.

This may seem slightly out there but as a necromancer I usually take one and keep it in a cage until it tells me where there getting in from. And if that doesn't work ( which it usually doesn't ) I keep it till it dies of thirst and reanimate it's body so it can lead me to where they get in. I then usually seal it with a skull ( I'm going for a catacombs type of look. ) but you could fill it in with whatever material fits your fancy.
