How Manual Entries Work
Manual entries are the main reference system in Home Safety Hotline. Each entry gives you three important things: the visible signs of the problem, the danger level, and the recommended solution. The fastest way to solve a call is to match the caller’s clues to the language used in the manual.
- Description: what the hazard looks, sounds, or smells like.
- Danger: why the hazard matters and how urgent it is.
- Solution: the service, item, or action that usually resolves the issue.
Quick Hazard Index
| Clue Type | Likely Manual Entries | What to Check |
|---|---|---|
| Bites, blood, itching, rashes | Ticks, Bed Bugs, Mice | Look for blood feeding, droppings, bites, or delayed skin reactions. |
| Wood damage, walls, floors | Termites, Fracture Hobbs, Floor Roots, False Artifacts | Check for structural damage, cracks, floor movement, missing children or pets, and unusual objects. |
| Buzzing or flying pests | Bees, Wine Sprites, Night Wisps | Separate normal insects from supernatural clues such as whispers, rotten wine, or lights outside windows. |
| Fungus, damp areas, strange growth | Black Mold, Cellar Growths, Pipe Growths, Whistling Fungi, Unicorn Fungi | Match the location: walls, cellar, pipes, pets, or drywall cracks. |
| Fire, smoke, poison gas | House Fires, Carbon Monoxide | Fire has visible combustion; carbon monoxide is odorless and linked to dizziness, headaches, and poor ventilation. |
| Small household creatures | House Spiders, Desk Hobbs, Night Gnomes, Laundry Gnomes, Travel Gnomes | Use behavior and location to decide: desks, bedrooms, laundry, luggage, or webs. |
| Major supernatural danger | Boggarts, False Rose Bushes, The Horde, Fae Flu | Prioritize entries that warn about evacuation, long-term harm, infection, or severe household contamination. |
Common Entry Clues
Pest and Insect Entries

Hobb, Gnome, and Fae Entries
- Desk Hobbs: desk or vanity activity, objects being sorted, and breadcrumb prevention clues.
- Fracture Hobbs: cracks and fractures in walls, usually tied to Hobb behavior.

Unusual Object and Creature Entries

- The Horde: huge amounts of household refuse, trash, rotten food, and contamination.
How to Use This During Calls
- Write down the caller’s strongest clue first: smell, sound, object, injury, animal, room, or time of day.
- Search the manual entry by that clue instead of reading every entry from the start.
- If two hazards sound similar, compare the location. For example, cellar, pipe, wall, attic, bedroom, and laundry clues usually separate the answer.
- Check whether the entry asks for evacuation, professional service, prevention, or a simple household action.
- Use the answers guide when you want the exact call solution instead of the manual reference.
