Patch 4.0.3 | Posted: November 23, 2010
Before being able to farm for this companion, players must complete a quest chain. This chain is started at the entrance of the Eastern Plaguelands (from Western Plaguelands) and is given by the NPC Fiona. See our Community Guide: Mr. Grubbs for details.
The grubs of the Plaguelands are a side effect of necromantic corruption and the massive number of corpses there. Mr. Grubbs is from a particularly acrobatic breed.
Interact with her caravan and choose "Fiona's Lucky Charm", which will allow you to loot [Hidden Stash] from any mob. This item can be opened and is where you find your pet. Got mine from 3rd bag while doing the quest-line.
1: you can hold more than one bag at once
2: when farming for this, go up to Zul'Mashar in the North-East, very fast respawn rates and you can kill them very fast.
DROP: [Hidden Stash] (via various level 40-45 mobs found in Eastern Plaguelands) while having Fiona's Lucky Charm Buff
After you find Fiona, you have to do the two separate quest-lines she gives. Her caravan will then have the quest to give you "Fiona's Lucky Charm" buff, which allows the [Hidden Stash] to drop. Got him in 11 tries from an Infected Mossflayer.
started at the Undercroft, killed 3 guys, first bag had Mr. Grubbs!
Took me less than 10 minutes to get 2. I killed everything in Noxious Glade. The first Mr.Grubbs I got came from either the first or second bag that dropped for me. The last dropped maybe 4 bags later? Pretty high drop rate or I got lucky.
For me, I was only able to have one "Hidden Stash" bag in my inventory at a time, so make sure to loot it as soon as you pick it up, otherwise you might spend a few minutes wondering why you haven't come across another one.
There is very little downtime.
Thats 4 new pets today:D

Tiny Flamefly (Looks like the Firefly but is Purple and Green)
I don't see anything on this site for the Tiny Flamefly yet, its a quest reward from a long chain that starts in Searing Gorge and Burning Steppes^^
I did all the quests in epl that I needed for my achievement and I had fiona's buff the entire time. I got mr grubbs four(!) times while doing the quests.
He may look exactly like other grubs and maggots, but he's so athletic that he just makes me go "Awwww" every time he jumps! I almost wanna hug him and squeeze him... but I won't call him George. ;)
In all seriousness, he's also quite a good battle pet. He hits decently well and his speed is good too. I just keep him on the default skill set and that's usually enough to deal with most encounters.
2/3 characters I have got this pet just while questing in the zone :P
It's very powerful, easily taking on enemies some levels higher than it. Worth grinding for IMO, if you dont get it just by questing.
Just got 2 of them for 20 gold in the AH. So luck!
I got this little guy on my account just while questing in the zone. I am now trying to get him for my husband. After 3 hours and 2 levels gained just from killing mobs (no quest turn ins at all!), still no luck! I am gonna take a break and try again tomorrow... Maybe.
this pet is highly underestimated.At lvl 21 is amazing against undead and solo'd stitches and others in menagerie
I am rarely this lucky, but I got mine on my second kill! I was all settled in to be here for some time and Bam! I don't expect to be that fortunate again for a while. :) Good luck!
I found mine just off the road to the east of Corin's Crossing, the one thing I did notice was but no idea if it was just a coincidence, the grub that dropped it was moving much quicker than the others, he was moving back and forth at some speed and I somehow had a feeling he was the one after about half an hour :D
