'''Ujadani''' ({{j|ウジャダニ|Uja Dani|Swarm Mite}}) are small creatures that appear in the [[Wistful Wild]] | '''Ujadani''' ({{j|ウジャダニ|Uja Dani|Swarm Mite}}) are small creatures in {{p2}} that appear in the [[Wistful Wild]] in intervals of 30 [[day]]s, on days 31, 61, 91, etc. [[#Naming|The name]] comes from their [[e-Reader]] card. They are very small, orange bugs with a 5mm body length that scurry about in large swarms, and are not documented in the [[Piklopedia (Pikmin 2)|Piklopedia]]. Upon closer examination, they appear to have tiny scuttling feet before their bulbous backs. Two swarms of 70 each can be found on the days they appear. One of the swarms is located near the entrance of the [[Hole of Heroes]], and the other is in the black stone area to the right of the black [[gate]] leading to the [[Dream Den]], on the edge of the clearing of [[Creeping Chrysanthemum]]s. Since they appear so rarely, some players go through the game without knowing of their existence. | ||
The creatures can be attacked by [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]], similarly to the way they smack at [[rubble]] and [[nectar weed]], right down to the fact that they do it on their own accord even if they are following a leader. Each time one is killed, it has a high chance of releasing [[nectar]] or [[spray]] drops. This makes the secret bugs the best source of sprays and nectar in the game. Non-[[White Pikmin]] are affected by the [[poison]] the swarms release when attacked, which acts like any other instance of poison in ''Pikmin 2''. The insects rarely attack, however, so it's possible to beat all insects without any non-White Pikmin being poisoned. | The creatures can be attacked by [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]], similarly to the way they smack at [[rubble]] and [[nectar weed]], right down to the fact that they do it on their own accord even if they are following a leader.

If left alone, each Ujadani scurries about near the swarm's lair. They ignore leaders, but once a Pikmin appears, the Ujadani closest to it will start swarming around it. They either move around the Pikmin, hop around it, shake in place for a bit, or jump onto it and let go after a brief moment. Every once in a while, when performing one of these actions, they release some poison that affects the Pikmin, although this release cannot be seen. These behaviors can be observed by having a leader [[throw|hold]] onto a Pikmin, though non-White Pikmin might get affected by the poison and escape the leader's hand. | If left alone, each Ujadani scurries about near the swarm's lair.

So many spray drops in one place present the perfect chance to use a [[Glitches in Pikmin 2#Double sprays|glitch]] which effectively doubles the number of sprays the player can absorb. Though it may take a little extra time depending on the exact method used, it is well worth the effort to squeeze as much profit out of this rare opportunity as possible. | So many spray drops in one place present the perfect chance to use a [[Glitches in Pikmin 2#Double sprays|glitch]] which effectively doubles the number of sprays the player can absorb.

This creature's English name is never | This creature's English name is never stated, but the Japanese name comes from its [[e-Reader]] card, and is a combination of the Japanese words {{j|うじゃうじゃ|ujauja|in swarms|f=tp}} and {{j|ダニ|dani|tick|f=tp}}. Its scientific name is not known, but its internal name, <code>ujamushi</code>, is similar to the Japanese name, except ending in {{j|むし|mushi|insect|f=tp}}. | ||
