Silksong Lost Flea Locations: Reading the Flea Layer

The Lost fleas layer draws 34 markers across Pharloom. The rescue list has 27 ordinary lost fleas plus Huge Flea, Kratt and Vog. The other 4 markers are the flea caravan’s stops.

Click the layer’s name rather than its checkbox and those types appear as their own rows. Switch the caravan off to leave the 30 rescue locations.

Where the caravan stops

Three of the caravan’s four markers are filed under Blasted Steps, Greymoor and Putrified Ducts. Those are the ones to look past when you are counting fleas rather than following the caravan.

The caravan belongs on this layer rather than a separate one because it is the same trail: the fleas you free turn up where it is parked.

Why the rescue count is 30

Flea guides count 30 fleas to rescue. The game stores 27 of them as ordinary saved-flea pins. Huge Flea, Kratt and Vog are separate named encounters, so they have their own filter rows instead of being folded into the ordinary pin count.

The 4 caravan stops are route context, not rescue targets. Turn them off when you want the layer to match a 30-flea checklist.

If you are chasing a completion count, work from the game’s own tally and use the layer to find what you are missing.

Running the layer

Flea markers sit close to benches. Across the kingdom the typical flea is about a bench’s walk from one, and none is far from the nearest bench, so fleas with benches on is a more useful view than fleas alone.

The in-view counter is what makes a sweep manageable. Zoom out until the markers collapse into discs and each disc shows how many are inside it. Pan across an area and the number tells you how much of the layer is still out there without opening a single card.

Marking fleas off

Open a flea marker and tick Mark on its card. Once most of them are ticked, turn on Hide marked and only what you have not reached is left drawn.

That is worth doing early with this layer specifically. Flea markers look alike and are spread thin, so the ones you have already found are exactly the ones you will keep re-checking if you do not tick them.

Marks live in your browser and are stored per map. Pharloom is a single map, so one tally covers the whole run, and it does not follow you to another device.

Using it alongside a written flea list

The map and a numbered guide answer different halves of the question. A guide tells you what to do when you get there. The map tells you where the marker is and how many are left in the part of the kingdom you are standing in.

Read them together and the caravan filter is the first thing to set: with it off, everything drawn is something you are meant to be looking for.
