Gnomes count as critters, right?

Here is a list of good locations to farm critters for this achievement in attempt to cut down on the amount of repeated comments.
- Easiest spot: Zul'Gurub's fast respawning [npc=2914]s can get you a few hundred kills in just a few minutes. Only works in the un-instanced zone, but it can bug if somebody nearby is doing a quest.
- Fastest spot: [npc=58883], an elite mob in Krasarang Wilds, spawns critters constantly in combat. If you don't kill her, she will continue to spawn waves of critters every few seconds. Best done in a duo; one kiter and one AoEer.
- Rats at the Deeprun Tram have instant respawn times
- Terrorweb Tunnel in EPL houses about 280 critters.
- Stonetalon Pass in Mulgore has a lot of critters, although they sometimes kill each other (it's true!)
- Penguins in Borean Tundra over a dozen on each iceberg.
- Agmar's Hammer is a nice spot for Horde characters to farm.
- Darnassus is a good spot for alliance lowbies, since you can run around the whole city killing and never run out of respawns.
- Turkeys in Borean Tundra. Once you kill 15 turkeys, a horde of Angry Turkeys will appear to attack you. They count to the achievement too!
Players questing in Gilneas (on this quest) could kill 1,000 critters in 10 minutes.No longer count as critters.Herds of [npc=1933] in Uldum and in Gilneas were easily aoed down, and were instant respawns.No longer count as critters.[item=33866] will make kills for the achievement even when you're AFK. Stormchops can make 600 kills per hour and lasts 30 mins - just long enough before you get afk logged.
Companions that kill critters (1 2 3 4 5) no longer count! :(
Also, bear in mind that the [item=63398] can only be purchased at revered guild rep.
------
As of 4.0.6 it is not possible to get multiple kill-counts per critter by grouping with several guildies! :( HOWEVER if you group with somebody in a different guild, it does count towards both your guilds' achievement, so team up with your friends in different guilds! :)
There's a cave in Eastern Plaguelands here that has tons of spiders/cockroaches and other cave things. I'm not sure what the respawn rate is, I only ran through it once, but I easily got 150 just going through the cave, swiping.
