The Insect Condo (バグズ・キングダム?, lit.: "Bugs' Kingdom") is a treasure in Pikmin 2 and Pikmin 4, and a fruit in Pikmin 3. It is an apple.
In Pikmin 2, it is located on sublevel 5 of the Dream Den inside of a Fiery Bulblax. It is also located in the game's Challenge Mode levels: Once in the Novice Training and once in the Green Hole.
In Pikmin 3, it is located in the Twilight River inside of the Burrowing Snagret. It can also be found in the game's Mission Mode levels: Once in the Tropical Forest, four times in the Silver Lake, three times in the Thirsty Desert, seven times in the Twilight Hollow, once in the Shaded Garden, twice in the Silver Lake Remix, three times in the Thirsty Desert Remix, seven times in the Fortress of Festivity and once in The Rustyard.
In Pikmin 4, it is located once on sublevel 4 of the Engulfed Castle and once in sublevel 2 of the Frozen Inferno. It can also be found in the game's Dandori Battles and once in the 8th Story of the Trial of the Sage Leaf.
In all games, the notes for this fruit imply that it is contaminated with parasites.
Collecting the treasure in Pikmin 2
The following article or section contains guides. |
- See also: Fiery Bulblax strategy.
The Insect Condo is found inside a Fiery Bulblax in sublevel 5 of the Dream Den. The player should be sure to defeat the Red Bulborbs and Blowhogs nearby, because they may attack the Pikmin while they're carrying the treasure.
Collecting the fruit in Pikmin 3
The following article or section contains guides. |
- See also: Burrowing Snagret strategy.
In Pikmin 3, the Insect Condo is inside a Burrowing Snagret, which is in an arena just past an electric gate in Twilight River. After defeating the Burrowing Snagret, the paper bag to the northeast of the arena should be pushed, creating a quick route back to the ship. Along the route are two Desiccated Skitter Leaves, which will eat the carrying Pikmin if not defeated.
Collecting the treasure in Pikmin 4

Engulfed Castle
There is an Insect Condo inside of a Startle Spore in the northeastern room of sublevel 4 of the Engulfed Castle. To collect this treasure, you must first defeat the Startle Spore, then throw 12 Pikmin at it.
Frozen Inferno
There is an Insect Condo behind a crystal wall in the northwestern corner of sublevel 2 of the Frozen Inferno, so Rock Pikmin or Bomb rocks are required to collect it. It is guarded by a Frosty Bulborb with a Dwarf Frosty Bulborb nearby, which should be defeated before attempting to collect it. To collect this treasure, you must throw 12 Pikmin at it.

Olimar's journal (Japanese)
- Text: “外見はおいしそうだが、内部をスキャンした結果、数十種類の虫に寄生されていることがわかった。虫が苦手のドルフィン初号機は収容するのをイヤがっていたが、私は有無をいわせなかった。やかましいあいつも今日はずっとおとなしかったな。”
- Translation: “It looked tasty on the outside, but a scan of its interior revealed that it is parasitized by dozens of different kinds of bugs. The ship, who does not like bugs, didn't want to house it, but I didn't give it any choice. That fussy guy has been much quieter today.”
Sales pitch (Japanese)
- Text: “ムシクイ科ノ植物デ、数十種類ノ虫ニ寄生サレテイルコトカラ、「虫王国」ト呼バレ、学術的ニタイヘン貴重デス。ワ、私ニハ貴重デハアリマセンケドネ!”
- Translation: “
A plant of the Bugeatenidae family, it's called the "Bugs' Kingdom" because it is parasitized by dozens of different kinds of bugs, and is very valuable academically. N-not so valuable to me, though!
”
Brittany's notes (Japanese)
- Text: “果汁の量も多く、これだけあれば何日分かの食料になるだろう。しかし、この香りの誘惑に勝つのは困難だ。”ガマン”。これができれば、アタシたちの故郷はあんなことにはならなかっただろう。”
- Translation: “The amount of juice is so great that this should feed us for several days. However, it's hard to resist the temptation of this aroma. "Patience". If we had it, our homeland would not be in such a state.”

Trivia
- The Insect Condos in Pikmin 2 and Pikmin 3 are based off of the Pink Lady variety of apple, while the Insect Condo in Pikmin 4 is based off of the Gala variety of apple.
- A unused icon in Pikmin 2's files would have indicated that a blue apple treasure was going to appear, which was eventually replaced with a green apple treasure (which also has an unused model present) before being eventually finalized as the Meat Satchel.
