Greydwarfs spawning in base?

[SPACE NUGGETS]

Any way to prevent this? My base is fully fenced in and I keep finding them inside it.

The first base I built didn't have this problem and it's about the same size.

One spawned in mine but after putting a couple of workbenches nearby the spot where it appeared it hasn't happened again. There might be other things you can do as well though. I wonder if light prevents it too (like in Minecraft). I need to test that.

Workbenches prevent enemy spawning within their radius, so place more workbenches around. If you find them ugly try finding ways of sticking them under floors.

Workbenches
Hoe flattening
Fire.
Cover the map, enjoy powerpoint as the world gets covered in instances.

There's a list on the wiki of items that allegedly prevent spawns in a similar radius (20 metres) as the workbench. I say allegedly because they haven't all been tested according to the wiki.

Hoe flattening does not do anything to prevent spawns that I know of.

This only prevents spawns within the radius of these items. They can spawn outside of it and walk in.

Workbenches, fire, and walls. When I upgraded my base from wood to stone walls, I actually put workbenches inside the walls.

I built workbenches where my natural rock walls will be, then I raised the ground for the wall encompassing the workbenches. No ugly benches and they can't be destroyed. simples.

The castle I made in my previous seed map had a workbench every ten floor tiles, which is under the twenty meter radius. I also had a ward next to each bench, with the entire ground flattened and no patches of grass showing, as well as having workbenches on every floor of the inner keep and outer towers. The castle was completely walled in with a protective moat to boot. And I still had boars, deer, necks, greydwarves, flowers and flint all spawning in practically every twenty minutes. I think it may be possible that there are just hard spawn points that do not disappear with workbench radius application, because I do not know what else I can do. I even downloaded and installed the Valheim Plus mod in order to up the radius of each workbench and ward to a hundred meters, to no avail. I had to abandon my beautiful base because it became ridiculous having all my stuff break every time I turned to look.
