I'm not familiar with Kobolds, but they sound something like brownies. (Elves that like to help around the house -- sort of like Dobby from Harry Potter, but for real, and probably cuter! LOL) I would take the advice that they are just unhappy. You could try leaving them little offerings to make them happier. They like sweet things, honey, and shiny objects, like coins. Also, I tried something once that suggested that if you think a faerie has stolen something of yours you can write the name of the Faery Queen on a piece of paper, fold it up, and put it under the leg of a chair. State out loud that you will not let her free until you find what you are looking for. I only tried it once, but I remember working pretty well!

The kobold is essentially a form of Jewish /Slavic brownie.The Kobold can be seen ,but only out of the 'tail'of the eye.If annoyed,it can turn quite vicious and being a creature of 'shadow' it does not like you knowing anything about it,especially its name.So the simple answer is give it a name.Do you remember the tale of Rumplstiltskin?This particular spirit was a Kobold!
Observe their basic natures and award names according to the characteristics that they display,eg "Pan hider","Sock biter","Food Spoiler."
Their usual hidey-holes are woodpiles,kitchens,bath-houses/saunas,the rafters (beams) of the main room and work rooms.Giving them a name effectively says " I know who you are and you have no more power here,you're sussed!."

A Kobold will do chores around the house for you, so keep it. BUT BE SURE TO KEEP THEM HAPPY! Kobolds will play vicious tricks on you if you do not keep them appeased. If they get out of hand, throw soapy water on them, as their element is earth.
