Gnomes Aren't All Fun and Games...

Why Not?

Like stated in my last post, gnomes can be helpful to humans, but are also very well know to have mischievous behavior towards us as well. This mischievous behavior can turn into something serious fast. Some gnomes have went off into a way of life, that's destructive to humans.This post is to help you protect yourself against those bad apple gnomes.


How to Protect Yourself Against a Gnome Attack:

- Know the Signs:

        Are you at risk? People whom are more at risk live in a suburban area, or near a wooded area. Risk for an attack is higher if you live alone, and/or you follow a strict routine. An of course risk is high if you yourself or a neighbor actually own a gnome.


- Look out for Suspicious Activity and Recognizing Communication:

       Have you even found something in a different place than from where you left it?  Do you feel like you're being watched? Are your pets acting a little out of character lately? Have you felt more drafts in your house than normal? Watch out the gnomes might be lurking around. If they are trying to communicate with you look out for agriglyphs, or mini crop circles, also look for mazes, stonescaping (stones places in shapes, arrows, and other designs),  and lights.


- Protect Your Home, Inside and Out

        When planing to protect your home be prepared to trap a gnome, you need to have a place to put him once you've caught him. To catch him, or keep him away creating a moat or mixing quicksand are great ideas. Fertilizers also keep gnomes away, motion-activated lights, chimney caps, and a big dog are great ways to stay protected. Inside make sure things are clean and clutter free, so if they do get in there aren't many places for them to hide.
