There are a lot of insects inPalia. They fly, crawl, hop, skitter, and inch across the ground, and it takes a lot of hunting to find the rarest and most valuable ones. Besides the ones you may see out and about, quite a few of them even like to hide under rocks and in trees, making them tricky to locate.

Where To Catch Bahari Bees

Bahari Beesarenative to their namesake, Bahari Bay, but they aren’t just found flying about like Butterflies or Dragonflies: they canonly appear after you cut down Heartwood Trees.

They can spawn when cutting down small, medium, or large Heartwood treesacross the entirety of Bahari Bayand only during the day. Regardless of the tree size,they have a five percent chance of spawning.

Bahari Bees have a dash movement style –they do a quick dash in a direction, pause briefly,then repeat. Due to their relatively high speed and how they’reinstantly alerted when you cut down the tree, the best ammo to use when catching them is theSticky Smoke Bombs.

Sticky Smoke Bombs slowa bug’s movement speed considerably,and they can give you the extra time needed to catch the Bee. Whether you have regular, Sneaky, or Sticky ammo, the best way to catch the Bahari Bee is towait for the first pause in their movement, then repeatedly pelt them.

If you want to conserve ammo, you can also hit them withone Sticky bomb first then useSneakyorStandardafterward.

The recipe for Sticky Smoke Bombs can bepurchased from Auni once you hit level four in Bug Catching, then crafted in sets of 20 at your home plot.

It can also be purchased from him for a set of 20 for 20 Bug-Catching Coins after reaching level ten in Bug Catching.
