This creature resembles a bread roll in appearance, and is the namesake of the [[Breadbug family]]. It holds the Space Float ship part in Pikmin 1. It does no harm to the Pikmin directly, though it can pull away small objects (in [[Pikmin 1]]), or both small and rather large (in [[Pikmin 2]]) objects vital to the Pikmin into its dwelling. If Pikmin are holding onto something when the Breadbug pulls it into its nest, they will die. It has a large amount of tough blubber, making it immune to swarming. A larger version of this enemy, called the [[Giant Breadbug]], appears alongside these enemies in an area in Pikmin 2. The Breadbugs nest can be found in Pikmin 1 but I'm not going to tell ;) | ||

The easiest way to kill a Breadbug is to wait until it takes hold of an object, then swarm Pikmin onto that object and return it to any [[Onion]] or the Ship's [[research Pod|pod]]. The Onion or the Ship receives the object and the Breadbug takes damage by banging his head on the Onion/Ship. This method usually has to be done twice, though the first hit is so strong, it may just take one Pikmin thrown on its back to finish it off. | The easiest way to kill a Breadbug is to wait until it takes hold of an object, then swarm Pikmin onto that object and return it to any [[Onion]] or the Ship's [[research Pod|pod]].

The members of this species encountered in Pikmin 1 move more swiftly than those in Pikmin 2, making them even more difficult to kill via this method. Using [[Purple Pikmin]] makes this method faster since their heavy weight will hurt the Breadbug, and they also try to home in as they land. | ||
Another quick way to kill it in | Another quick way to kill it in Pikmin 2 is to use an [[Ultra-bitter spray]] to petrify it, which will make it vulnerable to swarming. | ||
