Important where to place gordo snares?

[machina]

I've unlocked the Advanced Gordo snare and so far placed it in front of my house twice with different food but only attrated Pink Gordos. Is the location of the snare important to which slimes you're going to attract or does it depend on food only?

I wanna know how to where to get a dervish gordo :(. Does the food you put there matter as well?

[Guhh]

It has obligatory the favorite food of the slime you want

The food you put in the snare is the *only* thing that matters, as far as I can tell. Position of the snares is more of a convenience thing, it seems.

The way the food system works for the snares is as follows: Want to get a certain type of slime? Put its favorite food in the snare, and the gordo ensnared will have a higher likelihood of being that type of slime. It may, however, end up being another type of slime that likes the same food type (e.g. meat, veggies, or fruit). In that case, try, try again.

For example, when I got sick of twister-chasing and wanted to get Dervishes without pulling my hair out, I found Prickly Pears, and after using like four or five snares, I finally got a Dervish gordo. The other four snares had other slime types who also eat fruit.

That about covers it.
