Not enough skill to disarm that trap? Throw acid or explosives or fire at it and make it so that they destroy the trap, not relocate it. Or put in movable destructible obstacles that can be placed in a way that blocks the shot from a gargoyle, for a limited number of shots. No bonus exp, no zorkmids from selling disarmed traps, but also no acid bolts sticking out of your tin-can covered noggin!
