Belknap Infestations

Crazy Willie's

You'll pass through Crazy Willie's early in the game as part of You Got a Death Wish, but you won't deal with the infestation until later. The best time to handle this is during your trip to the Hot Springs camp during Price on Your Head.

Crazy Willie's Nests

Thankfully, Crazy Willie's Nests are all pretty close to each other. If you enter on the main road coming in from the NE, you'll have to pass by two parts of a jack-knifed tractor trailer. Take a right between them to find a shed with Nest 1 and a small self-moving trailer with Nest 2. From here, turn left and walk by a white car. You'll see an L-shaped orangish building. The NE side will have Nest 3 and the far end of the SE end will have Nest 4.

Stick your bike near the gas station and fill it up if you need to. Start in the NE corner and hit all four with Molotovs in rapid succession as you make your way back to the bike. When you've hit all four, jump on the bike and get out of town.

Marion Forks

To get to Marion Forks, travel north from the O'Leary Mountain Safehouse and go through the tunnel at the Horse Lake Nero Checkpoint. Follow that road as it curves west pas the Marion Forks Tunnel Nero Checkpoint. Stay on this road to encounter this Infestation.

The town is split into two parts. The first part on the east is smaller and has three Nests. You'll need to jump across the broken bridge to get to the second half. On the much larger second half of the town to the west, there will be two more Nests. I recommend scouting the three nests on the east side of town and driving your bike to it's slightly past the third nest. Hit the three nests in order before hopping on your bike and jumping the bridge.

Marion Nests 1-3

Immediately upon entering Marion Forks from the east, turn left and go past the large warehouse. Beyond the warehouse will be a shed to the right and a two-story house to the left. Check the shed on the right to find a nest in the back corner.

From the first nest, run west past the two-story house. Beyond that but before the stream, you'll find a single-floor ranch style house. The nest will be sticking out of the SE corner.

The last nest on this side of the town is closer to the main road in the tallest building in town, which is currently to the south of you. Run south and run around the building to the east. Get to the SE corner and look up to see the nest sticking out of the second-floor window. Once you've tossed it, hop on your bike and jump the bridge.

Marion Nest 4-5

Since nests 4 and 5 are fairly far apart, you may want to bike between the two. You'll find this nest just after the broken bridge. On the right will be a gas station and the nest will be inside on the east side. Unfortunately, this one has wonky geometry. I tried burning it with two Gas Cans only to have to use a Molotov anyway.

The last Nest is a little way up on the south side of the road but before the intersection. The building is a large square-ish library. You'll be able to see it from the front windows. Destroy it from there and you can ride off.

Pat Jens Lakes

You'll find this Infestation SW of the NERO refugee camp in the NW corner of the map. It overlaps with the Everyone Has to Work mission that you get from Tucker, which is part of the Protect the Weak storyline.

The most efficient way to do this is starting at the top since the north most Nest faces inward. This way you can position your bike south, hit the northern Nest and travel south along the path and then hit the main road after the last one to lose any Swarmers.

Pat Jens Nest 1

The first Nest as at the top of a hill next to the radio tower. It'll be in the doorway of the nearest building. Situate your bike facing the road by the front gate, torch this and hit the road. Take the first right on the path and follow it south to find the other two.

Pat Jens Nest 2

Nest two will be in a cinderblock shack with a metal roof off the right side of the road. Drive past it and look north to see right into the building. Toss a cocktail into it before hopping on your bike (which is already past the nest).

Pat Jens Nest 3

Continue south along the path until it intersects with the main road. Turn right (west) and stop. Turn around and you'll see the nest situated inside of a trailer. Destroy it and you'll be able to hop on your bike to ride to safety before anybody can catch you.
