Silksong Crawbug Clearing Quest: Ragpelts, Rewards, and Scarecrow Secrets

Creige’s Halfway House has a problem with feathers, and Hornet is the one who can solve it. In Act 1 of Hollow Knight: Silksong, the Crawbug Clearing side quest asks players to collect 25 Ragpelts so that Creige can build a scarecrow. The task sounds simple enough—until the local birds start treating the roof like a personal playground. 🐦

Starting the Crawbug Clearing Quest

The quest does not appear at the very beginning of the journey. Players first need to defeat the Widow boss in Bellhart and free the town’s citizens from their web captivity. That fight becomes available after defeating Sister Splinter in Shellwood and acquiring the Cling Grip. Once the Widow falls, the Wish Board beside the shopkeeper in Bellhart quietly offers its requests. Crawbug Clearing sits among them, alongside My Missing Courier and Rite of the Pollip.

Accepting the wish is only the first step. The quest truly begins when Hornet speaks with Creige at the Halfway House in Greymoor. Behind the counter, Creige explains the situation: he needs 25 Ragpelts to build a scarecrow. Without it, the birds will keep swarming his building. Plain and simple, the man needs a feathered deterrent, and Hornet needs to supply the materials.

Finding Ragpelts in Greymoor

Ragpelts come from the green bird enemies in Greymoor. The small green birds above the Halfway House do drop them, but each tiny bird yields only one Ragpelt. Grinding those little ones and resting at the nearby bench works, yet it is not the fastest route. Truth be told, the better farming spot lies farther east of the Halfway House.
