If you find a map with purring maggots and wish to milk them, be sure to keep them in a fairly remote area of your fortress - while some dwarves detest purring maggots, ''any'' nearby dwarf will claim one as a meal if he happens to get hungry. Should this happen, [[forbid]]ding it after it has been picked up will cause the dwarf to drop it on the floor, where it will wander around. To recapture a dropped maggot, ensure that an animal trap is available nearby (and that all other animal traps have been forbidden), then issue a "Capture Live Animal" task at a [[kennel]] - a [[trapper]] should come along, pick up the animal trap, and capture the nearest vermin (which, hopefully, will be the purring maggot). | If you find a map with purring maggots and wish to milk them, be sure to keep them in a fairly remote area of your fortress - while some dwarves detest purring maggots, ''any'' nearby dwarf will claim one as a meal if he happens to get hungry.
