Menderbug is an enemy in Hollow Knight. The enemies are creatures that have succumbed into The Infection and has turned them into hostile beings who are determined to kill anyone who crosses their path. Acquiring the Hunter's Journal allows The Knight to acquire additional notes on an encountered and defeated enemy such as bits and pieces of lore, information on how to deal with the enemy, and information on The Hunter.

 

Member of an elusive guild of bugs fixated on the maintenance of Hallownest's many signs and wayposts.

The bugs of Hallownest were obsessed with building things. What strange little minds they had.

Menderbug Notes & Tips

  • The Menderbug is quite tricky, upon approaching it, it immediately flies away from The Knight.
  • You can spawn it by meeting the following conditions:
    • The sign at the entrance of the Forgotten Crossroads must be destroyed
    • Leave and re-enter the room.
  • To kill it, use Desolate Dive or Descending Dark for a fast attack before it flies away.
  • Killing the Menderbug unlocks its house near the area where Sly was first found.

      First time killing menderbug:
      Crystal dashing through sign room.
      *hits something, and then proceeds to stop*
      wait, what?
      *New journal unlock*
      hmm! anyway back to business didn't know that guy existed but I know nothing. (Please don't judge me I didn't know he would be there.)

      • I love menderbug so much. But on my first Playthrough I was geo Grinding and I came to the sign room and and accidentally shot vengeful spirit. Then I Saw Menderbugs corpse and cryed

        • Just like the innocent maggots, and Myla, if you kill Menderbug you are a horrible person. I refuse to do so. You don’t actually need to kill him to complete the Hunter’s Journal. And why would you? He’s not hostile or Infected - he’s just a humble, timid little carpenter. Team Cherry is sick in the head for requiring you to kill the innocent harmless, frightened maggots, or even encouraging/allowing you to kill them, Myla, Menderbug, and the Nailsmith.
