They have no attacks whatsoever, apart from the standard [[push]] attack, but they are so small they will rarely ever hurt a dwarf.

[[trap design|Drowning chambers]] do not work on creeping eyes, as they have no lungs. The same 5 z-level pit trap capable of killing dozens of [[blind cave ogre]]s with assembly line efficiency doesn't even damage these hardy creatures. Your best bet is your military, even though creeping eyes have a lot of excess targetable body parts and only one weak point: the heart.

For warriors with blunt weapons, they are basically living sandbags (and training dummies), being able to take many days of beating with maces and hammers without dying. Also, they don't really fight back, as their only known attack is pushing (although with particularly bad luck even it can break small bones and bruise noses and ears). Usually, the dwarves bash and hammer on them until they collapse from over-exertion and continue the onslaught after some rest. Speardwarves, swordsdwarves and axedwarves are known to kill creeping eyes relatively easily by stabbing them in the heart or simply hacking them apart.
