im really tired of creepers comming exploding my house.. awhile ago i saw a guy who used a tesla to kill them but when i searched the tesla on google it said it would kill player's... any other tool to kill mobs outside your house.
i've heard of attack turtle's or something like that but ure supposed to program them and i really dont wanna get involved with the computer craft :p too hard :p so i've heard

1. your modpack will help.
2. active defenses vs creepers is a waste. Light the area up, use fences and walls to exclude creepers and mobs from your 'safe' area.
3. Active defense options (that i know of)
* Vanilla has iron golems, cats, and snow golems
* thaumcraft has combat golems
* Portal Gun mod has turrets
* MFR has mob grinders
* Railcraft has steam traps
* Rotary craft has railguns, laser guns, landmines.
* MFFS has things
* ExtraUtilities has spikes.
* plus more

Witchery has...

Ember moss which will light entities on fire.
Brambles can harm or teleport entities away elsewhere depending on the type of bramble.
Treefyds can be an active defense option. And they can be told what to ignore so they don't harm you or your animals.
Several of the brews and the use of trapped plants could be handy.

If creepers are the only mob that is bothering you, Vanilla MC has the simplest answer. Ocelots. Creepers are scared of them. Find a jungle and tame a few with fish. Have a few of them at any entrances and fence off the area. No creeper will get near them and unlike many of the ways to rid yourself of creepers, they won't explode, just run away.

Personally, my favorite way of making my base safe is the magnum torch from extra utilities. Keeps mobs from spawning in a 64x64 area. It won't affect cursed earth spawning if you use that for a mob grinder, but not sure how it affects other spawners.

i just thought if this was my thread i could post what ever i want on on :c ?

You mainly want to keep a thread on topic. People do search the forums to find answers to their questions if there are multiple questions in a thread that doesn't indicate it, it makes it hard to search and find things.
