Yeah I feel you there. Unfortunately my last group never let go of the few times I used traps (mind you, in obvious tapped areas like dungeons or bandit hideouts etc) and started asking to look for traps multiple times for an area.

I do tell them that no traps are in the area as far as they can tell and that their experience as an adventurer that this area feels safe, but they insist :P.

As is the fun of DM’ing!
