Mobs spawning in house?

In my main house (meadows) occasionaly deer/boar or even greydwarves will spawn. I had a brute spawn and wreck some stuff but late game its more annoying then anything.

anyone know why this happens?
it is a large longhouse but i got fires and workbenches around. not to mention a large fence.

This happened to me. Turns out there was one small 2x2 spot that wasn't covered in my Plains base. I died 3 times to fulings spawning inside the base before I found it.

If base is big enough with just the right timing something might spawn before spawn blocking parts of the base load in.

This seems most likely. I believe you need a workbench spread out every 40 meters or so, but someone can confirm or deny that.

Does not have to be a workbench. Almost all interactable buildings stop spawn. Including unlit torches (idk about doors and chests). The range is spherical afaik, so 40m will likely leave gaps, as its the bench max range. I'd do it every 30m or so... you can see how much is that by placing a ward (and hitting something).
