They are below 2 kg (4 lb) in size, much smaller than [[cat]]s. Vermin are hard to see, but can be noted if you are particularly observant, as they will occasionally blink into and out of view on the screen. |

Some vermin can be captured in [[animal trap]]s, but those with the {{token|VERMIN_NOTRAP|c}} token can only be caught with a "Capture a Live Land Animal" job, while those with the {{token|VERMIN_SOIL|c}} token will be ignored for that job. Once caught, some can be trained as [[pet]]s. A few particular captured vermin can be used to produce [[extract]]s using a glass [[vial]] and the [[animal dissector]] labor. Captured [[purring maggot]]s can also be [[milk]]ed at a farmer's workshop. Vermin don't die of old age at all - if you capture one, it should last forever. | Some vermin can be captured in [[animal trap]]s, but those with the {{token|VERMIN_NOTRAP|c}} token can only be caught with a "Capture a Live Land Animal" job, while those with the {{token|VERMIN_SOIL|c}} token will be ignored for that job.

Dwarves will eat vermin if no other [[food]] source is available, resulting in an unhappy [[thought]]. Most vermin cannot be spawned in the [[object testing arena]], as those are not able to engage in combat anyway. |
