My dwarves have boots, and all invader drops are forbidden on drop so my dwarves don't to barreling out for that XxTroll fur sockxX
Good thing too. Those boots would track the syndrome all over the fortress, leading to dead children, babies and pets. And Armok help you if your dwarves ever tried to change their boots...

Children and pets aren't major losses and the occasional lost boot is destroyed with DF hack.

This might sound silly... but usually you don't have enough poison for such devices.

As well a poisoned water gun would likely be a one shot system anyhow.

I have started a new fortress.

This time in order to get the FBs to use their awefulness I'm sending a dwarf down a track moving super fast hidden behind fortifications. The results are that the entire corridor gets covered as the contaminants "bounce off" of the fortifications.

Which really helps when your legendary armorsmith with 89 friends decides to change his boots and promptly steps in a smear of ebola.
Also, the crazy cat ladies get to cause tantrum spirals approximately 10% more of the time now.

I have waterfalls and shit everywhere.

However trying to capture the circus for more contaminants on the last fort didn't turn out well. *shudder*

I did learn that when a limb gets sliced off it acts as a projectile and can smash a paper thin dwarven skull.
