Catching all rarities of bugs is a crucial step in leveling up the Bug Catching Guild to unlock advanced versions of the Belt, as well as new items and crafting recipes at the Bug Catching Guild Store. One of the new, common bugs that players can catch is the Mossy Moth. In this guide, we will tell you where to find and catch the Mossy Moth in Palia.
Where to Find Mossy Moth in Palia
The Mossy Moth is one of the new uncommon bugs in the game that spawn in multiple areas of the Royal Highlands map region. They are pretty easy to spot due to their decent size and distinctive brown color. The areas where the Mossy Moth has a high chance of spawning are as follows.
- Royal Hunting Grounds
- Steps of Renova
- Lonely Glen
- Amber Lake
TIP: If you are not seeing any Mossy Moth in the area, try catching other bugs in the area to raise the chances of spawning Mossy Moth.
Out of all the main areas, the Royal Hunting Grounds has a high spawn rate of Mossy Moth. Moreover, the Mossy Moth can spawn on the grounds of Enfield Manor. It is best that you explore the area thoroughly. However, you might find some of the Mossy Moths inside the Amber crystals. You need to break these crystals before you can catch them.

How to Catch Mossy Moth in Palia
Catching the Mossy Moth is harder than most bugs that roam freely in Royal Highlands. Upon finding a Mossy Moth, use the Smoke Bombs to stun it.
Additionally, stunning the Mossy Moth will require numerous Smoke Bombs, so make sure you bring enough to stun it when you find it. If the Mossy Moth gets alerted, it will try to flee in a straight line. It is best to throw the Sticky Smoke Bombs on it to slow it down and then use the regular Smoke Bombs to stun it. Once you have stunned the Mossy Moth, go near it and interact with it to pick it up.
NOTE: There is a chance you might run into an Amber-touched Mossy Moth, which has an Amber around it.
Catching the Amber-touched Mossy Moth will drop more Amber Echo. However, if you do not have the Echo Tracker, you will not get Amber Echo from catching Mossy Moth or any other bug. Echo Tracker is a special relic that Eshelon gives during the “A Stitch in Time” quest.
Uses of Mossy Moth in Palia
The main use of Mossy Moth is to use it as a crafting ingredient for Halward’s Blessing II Relic. Other than that, players can sell Mossy Moth for 12 Gold (Base) or 18 Gold (Star-Quality) to Zeki or at the Shipping Bin. Moreover, you can also gift it to certain villagers who like it or those who need it. So, if you can find any Mossy Moths, store one in the storage so you can give one to the villagers who need it. The villagers’ needs change every week, so it is better to keep an eye on them.
