Trapping minions is such a relief on the worries of energy.

   

As you can see in this photo, I have trapped all 3 in the corner.

It can take a bit of time & energy in itself, but once you have them isolated & out of the way, you’ll be glad you did…
However, You must remember that there is a medal to earn for banishing minions that you might want to earn first, plus resources you’ll need throught the game.
Just don’t forget to tell your neighbors not to banish them when they visit…

Note: If you are worried about someone banishing them check first before you click help
to see if anyone has & if so refuse the help…
Your neighbor still gets credit for it but the minions will stay put…
Also, don’t place royals near them or they will wander too close & become trapped…

 

• To get 3 minions so well placed, buy 3 grass and place 2 spaces away from eachother and in a line by the water then chop that to force spawn minions on those 3 spots. after u have 3 minions others shouldn’t spawn, ever. From then on u gotta be careful, that visitors do not kick them out of there, by clicking decline when a visitor is banishing them. And above all else block your avatar somewhere so it wont go near those 3 grass so that minion spawns on top of it instead of near the grass.

 

• You can also use Minion Potions bought from the shop for 1 Ruby or NEW to produce in Workshop.
  
  The way this works is, when you use a potion a minion will spawn in the middle of your current game screen location. If you want minions close to the edge, just scroll further than the edge of the map and use the potion(s), you can stack 3 minions in the same place doing this. (Some player reported that stacking Minions are not working anymore. They lose Minions by this way). The best placement is in a corner as less tiles will be blocked by a minion.
