Catching Fruitflies


Recommended Posts

Not that this is in correlation with the beta aside of Wormwood and one of his skills, but that's some old wish I don't recall if I posted about it or not. Could we... be able to catch Fruit Flies with Bug Nets ?

Off-topic here: how does one get that "Ravenous Spidernet" Bug Net skin or the other skin for it, the "Cavernous Spidernet"? I presume is from buying something, perhaps directly from KLei, right?

This plush for the standard spider net : https://shop.klei.com/products/spider-plush-black-v2

That one for the dweller net : https://shop.klei.com/products/spider-plush-white-v2

Both the plushes and nets are cool :)

There are aggresive insects that can be caught: killer bees, mosquitos, why not fruit flies?

Even spiders can be trapped and carried around...

Unrelated but can we please carry frogs around they're the only mob that can be trapped but dies instantly. I wanna have a pet frog.

Yes! please, this would be a good protection strategy against pests for wurt(and not only) and it's just strange that everyone is caught alive and the frog immediately dies

In fact, a very pleasant and interesting idea!

It is a pity that if you are not in Canada, then it is practically impossible to get them

Catching them is a good idea

It's a nice idea and it does seem weird that fruit flies can't be caught in nets, but until such a time where that becomes an option, you can still let some giant crops rot so as to be able to hammer them to release fruit flies the moment you want them.

It seems to me the idea would be to release a caught fruit fly in the vicinity of some freshly tilled earth, which would be useful if the fruit fly were either aggressive or far from the field, which would then grow weeds, forget-me-lots which can be made into a sanity restoring tea, tillweed leaves which can be used to make healing items, or firenettles which can be eaten for instant relief from the cold of winter. They can be useful, and are certainly not a mere novelty.

King of Fruit Flies soothing tea farms are pretty neat. Would be great if we could catch and relocate the fruit flies to not need the King and to be able to re fight him if you want to rather than leaving him in one spot permanently for the farm.

Incoming new crab king cheese. Release an inventory full of frogs on one boat then sail a short distance on another.

If you just want them for decor you can probably find someone on the forums kind enough to sweep some for you. That's what I did.

It’s not viable to have it grow weeds for you because once you release it

weeds are very viable, look at beefalo treats, soothing tea, tillweed salves, hell even fire nettles are good for winter-

also can you please just stop trying to min-max every thread you're in? the way you do it is kinda toxic imo

The things you said obligated me to at least clarify them, first, in this post, I mentioned

I actually mean, the flies are not likely to grow weeds because as a wormwood who have the fly attraction perk, once you catch and then release them, they will be soon attracted to you, so the flies are not going to grow weeds for you.

I literally don’t understand why you think I mean weeds are useless. Maybe I expressed in a wrong way but I think the fact that you didn’t even finish reading my threads and can’t wait to judge someone else has more possibilities.

Also, In my previous threads, most opinions I gathered from my friends, and most of them agreed with them, same as in the forum here. I just post my ideas and if you think that’s toxic, I don’t know what to say.
