When this cantrip is used, the caster may kill a small pest such as a fly, mouse, rat, beetle, or the like. It is useful for indoor and outdoor applications. If the subject is very small, an area of up to one-half cubic foot can be rid of pests. This cantrip is not effective against magical creations and normal-sized creatures magically shrunk to insect-size, nor on polymorphed creatures and similarly enchanted beings. Depending on the situation the DM may allow a Fortitude Saving Throw vs DC 15 for the pest to survive.

The somatic gesture is a pointed finger, while the caster verbalizes a low “zzzt” sound.
