Whether you need to take care of a Personal Order or clear out some bug infestations in any mission of Helldivers 2, you will most likely encounter Hunters in it. Hunters are small locust-like alien creatures that are extremely deadly. But, all you need are the right strategies to find and kill them easily in the game.
How To Find Hunters In Helldivers 2
Hunters will appear in any of your bug missions starting from the medium difficulty in Helldivers 2 and can be found on any Terminid systems planets (orange color). They will usually start surrounding you and jumping towards you as soon as you are in their line of sight.
Note: You need to be aware of your surroundings when dealing with these annoying white bugs.

How To Kill Hunters Easily In Helldivers 2
To kill Hunters, you need to equip any one-handed gun and back away from the swarm while shooting forward. Moving while shooting is the easiest way to take them down as that prevents those bugs from surrounding you.
Although Hunters are not that difficult to kill, they can certainly be overwhelming in groups. As soon as one of them spots you, they will all try to flank from the sides so that they can use their jump to pin you down.
So, utilize your weapons, shoot the ones that appear close, and keep aiding your teammates if they are getting swarmed by Hunters to get rid of them.
If you plan to take on these aliens solo, I would suggest having the Guard Dog Rover by your side. The rover does an excellent job of tracking every bug and makes sure they do not sneak attack. You can also get the Breaker Shotgun for getting rid of straggling ones, or the Grenade Launcher to clear out an entire cluster of them.
