Wild boomalopes spawn in areas with long and year-round growing periods. If you really need to kill a boomalope, use ranged weapons to kill them, preferably during [[rain]]fall to prevent fires from spreading. [[Manhunter]] boomalopes can be devastating to a colony, but, as explosive animals, they are prone to chain reactions. | Wild boomalopes spawn in areas with long and year-round growing periods.

| − | For tamed boomalopes, it is relatively safe to let them sleep outside. However, one should have [[animal sleeping spot]]s in a separate, fireproof safe area, to avoid bringing injured boomalope inside your base.
