	Micronoids are best engaged by Androids, who are immune to their attacks, highly Psi-trained Hybrids, or Human/Hybrid Agents armed with [[Toxigun\|Toxiguns]], which have very little effect if turned against other X-COM Agents. Note, however, that the Micronoids are completely immune to Toxin A. If the appropriate toxins are unavailable, explosives or alien Disruptor weaponry used by Androids or highly-trained Hybrids are the best methods of disposal. If forced to fight them using Human Agents, use low-powered weapons or the [[Megapol Stun Grapple]] and patience.

	~~== Capture ==~~

	The easy way to capture a Micronoid Aggregate is to assault a Bomber with a squad that includes a few Androids with Stun Grapples (not Stun Grenades; Micronoids are immune to stun gas). Micronoids are very slow, so wait for the other aliens to exit the UFO, then send in your Androids (and ONLY your Androids). As Androids are immune to Psionics, they have nothing to fear from Micronoid Aggregates, and can slowly wear them down with Stun Grapples (it takes about three or four hits, as they have moderately-high health). Make sure to pin each puddle to the floor as it's stunned (by placing one of the Androids on top of it), as they will wake up fairly quickly.

	~~Psionic stun is an alternative, but requires an extremely-skilled Hybrid to overcome the Micronoids' Psi Defense and resist the Micronoids' own Psionic attacks.~~
