Where to Get Bugs - The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time Remake Guide - IGN

Bugs are small gold and blue insects found under rocks and in tall grass in The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time Remake. They are not enemies, but rather a resource you can capture in an Empty Bottle. Releasing a Bug near Magic Bean Soil causes the Bug to go inside, revealing a Gold Skulltula.

If you are in a grassy or forested area, you can sometimes find a Bug by simply cutting down all the nearby grass and plants. Bugs have a small chance to appear, just like a Rupee or Heart.

If you would rather get your Bugs in bulk, the best spot is the small plot of farmland just outside Kakariko Village. There is a grotto here surrounded by plants, and cutting them produces about a half a dozen Bugs at once.

You can also visit the grotto in the Lost Woods (found next to the shortcut to Goron City), though this requires Bombs to gain entry.

Finally, you can also purchase a Bug at various stores across the game for 30 Rupees. We would recommend forgoing this option as they are so abundant elsewhere!
