Vermin-ward

(See also: Protection from Vermin (Wizard Spell))

The vermin-ward prevents vermin such as spiders, wasps, mosquitoes, flies, mice, rats, small snakes, and other small pests from entering the warded area. Mages often use this spell to protect grain silos and cargo holds. The mage must trace the perimeter of the warded area with a slurry of noxious chemicals that costs 1 gp per 10 linear feet. The spell consumes the material component.
