Get rid of Zombies! (Minecraft)

Has this ever happened to you?

There's just too many zombies trying to interfere with our building. So lets fix it!


This easy-to-make device will get rid of all unwanted zombies in about a 80 block radius and will not be attracted to you.

So lets begin making it!
First you want to get a villager trapped in a 1 x 1 x 2 box (doesn't have to be enclosed)

then dig 3 blocks in every direction from the villager and dig out a 7 x 7 square from that

dig one block lower in that 7 x 7

dig a 3 x 3 x 3 in the center then place 2 block under where the villager is standing

Put signs on all four sides of the lowest block of the villager's pillar. then aim for the side of the sign and place 4 more so its a fan shape

Put water in all four corners of the 7 x 7 box and put a lava bucket in the bottom pit.

And your done! No more fighting zombie sieges or hiding in a hole all night, you can now do whatever you feel like doing at night without being bothered by zombies. Now to figure out what to do with those creepers...

Here are some other ways to modify this:
Exp Farm-
Cactus Kill-
Drop Pit-

Additional Notes: The device doesn't guarantee that zombies wont go after the villager unless your on top of the trap. So the more you have around your base the better it will be (depending on the size of your base) remember that zombies will track you or villagers from around 80 blocks away, so use that to determine how many of these you need to set up.

Happy Building!

Nice design, very nice trap!

You can heal a zombie villager or you can transport villagers via water or minecart.

I thought villagers could be lead if one person talked to them and another lead them. Says so on the wiki.

I didn't know you could do that. It also says you can name villagers with nametags by double right clicking the villager, so the lead could work like that too.

It seems good, but doesn't work at well as I thought. They go for us instead of the villager most of the time. It sucks that we are first priority. :p
Works best when no one is around, and as you said on top of it.
Still, a great idea.

If you are close to or around the villager all night only a couple will ever track you, like i said the more of these you have around your base, the less likely they'll track you.
