So in other words: the object's weight, plus one-half of the carrying support slots, plus 1, rounded down equals the amount of Pikmin needed to overpower a Breadbug.

Breadbugs will ignore objects with a [[weight]] heavier than 10, as well as all treasures in the [[Explorer's Friend Series]]. They are also unable to drag very small or flat treasures such as the [[Science Project]] or [[Luck Wafer]]. Giant Breadbugs are no stronger than regular ones and all the same rules apply. The following table lists all possible combinations of weights and max carriers with their respective amounts needed to overpower. Most of these results cannot be observed without hacking.

It is present in the game's [[Challenge Mode (Pikmin)|challenge mode]], being in [[The Impact Site]] and The Forest Navel.

===In ''Pikmin 2''===

They can be found in Pikmin 2's [[Challenge Mode (Pikmin 2)|challenge mode]], being in the [[Snack Pit]]. They can also be found in [[2-Player Battle]], in the level [[Dim Labyrinth]].

===In ''Pikmin 4''===

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 its 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 [[throw]]n on its back to finish it off. So to better multitask, the best strategy would be to throw Pikmin on top of it once or twice and then have it drag an object and use Pikmin to carry it the opposite way. The Pikmin should deliver the object, and more often than not, get the now-dead Breadbug and deliver it as well.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

:When a hard or heavy object strikes their back, the impact is transmitted to their body, causing them to turn over.

In ''[[Pikmin 4]]'' the breadbug’s carrying power is simplified. The Breadbug always has a carrying strength of 10. Once the pikmins' total carrying strength exceeds 10 the breadbug will be dragged across the floor. Dandori Battle rules apply, and the Breadbug can shake Pikmin off an object if the Breadbug has the advantage or there is a tie. The Giant Breadbug has a carry power of 30.

*The Breadbug is one of few enemies to have a figurine modeled after them.

*Its nest is very similar in appearance to the [[Hermit Crawmad]]'s hole in ''Pikmin 2''.

*Breadbugs seem to have cannibalistic tendencies: in ''Pikmin 2'', they will carry dead Breadbugs into their nests and eat them.

*In ''Pikmin'', if a Breadbug gets stuck, it will burrow into the ground after about 8 seconds and respawn out of its hole.{{cite youtube|c_I03_U0Dx4|demonstrating how Breadbugs respawn when they get stuck.}}
