If you’re trying to complete the Roach Guts Wish in Hollow Knight: Silksong, you’ll need to hunt down Muckroaches and gather 10 Roach Guts for Benjin and Crull. These bugs can be a little tricky at first, but with the right strategy, farming them becomes simple. In this guide, we’ll walk you through where to find Muckroaches, the best way to fight them, and what reward you’ll get once the quest is done.
How To Get 10 Roach Guts in Hollow Knight Silksong

You can get Roach Guts by farming Muckroaches, which are pretty common along the roads in Sinner’s Road. Just keep defeating them, and they’ll drop what you need.

The easiest way to deal with Muckroaches is to use a hit-and-run strategy. They always lunge forward when they attack, and once they start, you can’t interrupt them. So, wait for their swing, back off, then move in and land a few hits while they’re open. Repeat this until they go down. Once you’ve collected 10 Roach Guts, your objective will be complete.

This quest comes from Benjin and Crull, who you’ll meet in Sinner’s Road. Once you talk to them, they’ll ask you to go out and collect 10 Roach Guts by hunting down Muckroaches in the area. There’s no long setup or extra steps; you can start the quest right away after speaking with them.
Roach Guts won’t start dropping until you pick up the Wish from Benjin and Crull, who you’ll find at the top right of Sinner’s Road. This is a Hunt Task, where they ask you to track down some Muckroaches and collect their guts after defeating them.
Once you finish the quest, you’ll be rewarded with Tacks, which work like ground spikes that hurt enemies when they step on them. You’ll get 7 Tacks to start with, and if you run out, you can refill them at any Resting Spot as long as you have enough Shell Shards.
