Yes, I like them. You can find all out wars between them and the other stuff. I watched and epic battle with a squito (squito lost, but it killed at least 1 growth), and lured 3 lox into a pit (lox won, I finished them off they were in bad shape). The multi-pit spawns (2-3 or more? pits in one small area) are better than anything on TV esp if there is a village or forest or something nearby to keep the action going.

I have already grown bored with gathering tar though. Digging drainage pits ... is the pits. Thankfully I mostly work in stone, so I have just stopped bothering with it.
