There are 30 Lost Fleas to find in Hollow Knight: Silksong, including Kratt, Vog and the Huge Flea. You can rescue them in any order. For the first caravan milestone, find any five and return to Fleamaster Mooshka in The Marrow. This checklist follows the Hollow Knight Wiki’s numbered locations; pair it with your map if your route or area labels differ.
Start the Lost Fleas Wish
Pick up the Lost Fleas Wish from the Wishwall in Bone Bottom or by speaking to Fleamaster Mooshka in The Marrow. After rescuing five Fleas, return to Mooshka to complete the first milestone. The caravan can then move to Greymoor; if Moorwing is undefeated, taking the ride can temporarily skip that boss. The Lost Fleas quest guide covers the Wish and first milestone.
All 30 Lost Flea locations
Ability names and route requirements below follow the Hollow Knight Wiki’s list. “None listed” means that list gives no specific ability requirement; it does not mean the room is hazard-free. Hidden passages, breakable walls and enemy encounters can make the route less obvious than the short clue suggests.
| # | Area | Where to look | Requirement or caution |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | The Marrow | Platform up from the beginning of the room. | Defeat Bell Beast and activate the bellshrine. |
| 2 | Deep Docks | Breakable wall to the left of the Bellway station. | None listed. |

| 4 | Deep Docks | Lower section behind a door; fight through the enemy gauntlet. | Clawline. |

| 6 | Far Fields | Flea cage guarded by a Skarr Scout, triggered by the cage or nearby pressure plate. | None listed. |

| 27 | Sands of Karak | At the top of the room, behind encrusted coral on the right. | No requirement listed for the coral route; Silk Soar is an alternate route. |
| 28 | Putrified Ducts | Follow the route involving Barnaks and platforming to reach Vog, then speak to her. | Vog can later mark missing Flea locations for Rosaries. |
| 29 | Whispering Vaults | Find the hidden passage behind curtains below Cardinius’s room, then complete the long platforming route. | Clawline and Cling Grip. |

The checklist is based on the Hollow Knight Wiki’s 30-entry Flea list. For more granular room navigation, Nintendo Life’s room-by-room Lost Flea guide describes, among other routes, the hidden ceiling path in Far Fields, the spike-heavy approach to its second Flea, and the root-and-coral route through Sands of Karak.

What happens after the first five?
Later caravan thresholds and rewards are reported differently by the two guides, so treat the later milestones as unconfirmed unless your game shows the requirement. The Hollow Knight Wiki lists 12 Fleas for the Blasted Steps move and a Spool Fragment, 22 for the move to Pale Lake in Putrified Ducts and a Tool Pouch, and 30 for the Egg of Flealia and access to the Festival of the Flea in Act 3. Nintendo Life instead reports 15 for the Blasted Steps move and Spool Fragment, 25 for the Putrified Ducts move and Tool Pouch, and a 30-Flea Egg of Fleelia Tool. Speak to Mooshka to trigger caravan movement; the guides also differ on some reward naming. Nintendo Life’s guide and the Wiki’s Flea page are the sources for these conflicting accounts.

Finding a last missing Flea
- Check the hidden-route areas first: look for breakable walls, curtains, suspicious ceilings, mist-covered doors and paths concealed by machinery.
- Compare your abilities with the checklist. Several routes explicitly require Cling Grip, Clawline, Faydown Cloak, Swift Step or Drifter’s Cloak.
- Revisit locations with mandatory encounters if you left before defeating the guard or freeing the captive.
- Once you find Vog, speak to her at the Caravan: she can mark missing Flea locations for Rosaries.
- Count Kratt, Vog and the Huge Flea among the 30; they are part of the total, not extras.
