Rid your lawn of gnomes the E-Z way!

Micro-gnomes.

Gnome-B-Gone.

It’s been nice knowing David and his clan.

There’s no pests like gnomes

Schlitweitz, David!

if they lived in the city, they’d be metro-gnomes…

Did they pay rent?

Oh, well – they’re in Gnome man’s land now.They are Gnome more.

I guess the gnomes don’t look at themselves as pests.

Gee! Gnome!

Isn’t that how Zombie Gnomes are created????

[Survivor, in Gnome Central Hospital, to journalist:] So there we were, working the harvest, you know? And then some madman unleashed this WMD gas on us! It was horrible! All of my friends, …gone! [8-point headlines:] Gnome Forces mobilized! President Gnome calls for declaration of war!

Gnome lovers unite! This is war.

Looked like they were cutting the grass, albeit at a rate that no one would notice.

Gnome-no-more

Step 1: Gather grass clippings

Step 2: ???

Step 3: Profit…ACHH GASP CHOKE

This is the story of Gnome MoreHe was shot with a .44No Gnome no more\Actually, I like garden gnomes! I have one on my dresser top, protecting my shamrocks, cactus, and poinsettia!

So, in most strips Lio would not harm a fly, but in others he spreads pesticide?

I would keep the gnomes, they are mowing the lawn,and curing it for hay, apparantly,I wonder what kind of livestock they have??

This is a 2008 strip.

Whoops!

I’m not sure why you wouldn’t want gnomes mowing your lawn for you.

Once again Lio is going against his innate love of pests

Why is the fertilizer hurting the gnomes? They are wanted pests!

Travelocity is gonna be pissed

Harry Potter needed some of that stuff.

Gnobody Gnomes the trouble I’ve gseen…
