How Level 13 Breaks Down
This board is level 13 of the Insects category in Word Salad. You are given the 16-tile pool FIDGMREFOAYLTHCY and must find 6 answers, every one of them a insect-themed word. That is right on the game-wide average of 6 words per board, so this is a quicker board than most.
The longest answer is Firefly at 7 letters, and the shortest runs to just 4. Finding the long entry first is almost always the fastest route through a Word Salad board: it consumes the rare consonants, and what remains in the pool tends to spell the short answers out for you. If you are working the category in order, level 12 comes before this one and level 14 comes next.
The Insects category runs to 50 levels in total — the full index is on the Insects page. For a different theme, the category list covers all 23, and there is a separate daily puzzle archive with 918 dated boards.

3 Tips for Insects Level 13
Play Firefly first
It is the longest answer on this board at 7 letters, and it eats the awkward tiles. Clearing it leaves 5 shorter answers to find from a much friendlier pool — on Word Salad boards the long entry is almost always the fastest way in.
Read the pool: 4 vowels, 12 consonants
The 16 tiles are FIDGMREFOAYLTHCY — and the rare letter Y narrows the field fast, because very few Insects answers use it. Every answer is drawn from this pool only, so count what you have before you swipe: the shortest answer here runs to just 4 letters.
You are 26% through Insects
This is level 13 of 50 in Insects, and difficulty climbs gradually across a category, so neighbouring boards share letter patterns. If this one is fighting you, level 12 is a useful warm-up. The daily puzzle uses the same mechanic on a fresh theme each day.

How we verify this level
Every word on this page comes from the Insects level data itself, not from a guess or a copy of another site. The 6 answers are checked against the 16-tile pool FIDGMREFOAYLTHCY so that no listed word can use a letter the board does not give you, and the list is re-checked whenever Bloop Games updates the game.

How to Solve a Word Salad Board
Three moves that clear a Word Salad board, in the order worth making them.
Read every category name first
The category names are the whole clue. Reading all of them before you move a single word tells you which groups are narrow and which are broad, and the narrow one is always the cheapest place to start.
Place the words only one group can take
Some words fit two categories on sight and some fit exactly one. Placing the unambiguous ones first shrinks the pool for everything else, which is what turns a stuck board into a solved one.
A full category is a finished category
Once a group has all its slots filled, nothing else belongs in it — and every word you have left belongs somewhere else. Working by elimination beats re-reading the same word against the same category.
