Minecraft Mob-Spawning in vanilla 1.8 server [closed]

I am making my own server and I am trying to make mobs not spawn in a certain area, I can't do a /kill @e[type=!Player] command because I have armor stands! So I was wondering what you guys thought. I am playing on a 1.8 vanilla server.


  1. /gamerule doMobSpawning false This will globally disable mob spawning
  2. Make sure there are no spots with light level below 7
  3. Make the floor with a material where mobs can't spawn on
  4. Make sure there are no airspaces around the area in a considerable size (10 blocks i believe) to prevent the start of the spawning sequence.
