How to Catch Bugs in Core Keeper 1.0
How to Get a Bug Net
Before you start chasing those elusive insects, you need the right gear. Enter the Bug Net, your trusty tool for this adventure. To craft a Bug Net in Core Keeper, head over to your Tin Workbench. You'll need 8 Wood and 8 Fiber to whip one up.

The Bug Net doesn’t have any durability, so you only need to craft it once.
