Kinsects provide buffs to the player by harvesting Extracts from monsters. Small monsters only provide 1 type of Extract, regardless of where the Kinsect hits them. Large monsters provide different types of Extract depending on where the Kinsect hits them.

Insect Glaive Monster Hunter World
Extract buffs are applied when the Kinsect returns to the player. Combining different Extracts provide additional effects. These combinations are commonly referred to as Double up or Triple up.
Kinsect Dust
Monster body parts can be tagged with a Kinsect (Mark Target) or a Kinsect (Fire). The equipped Kinsect will perform homing attacks on the tagged body part, and will collect Extracts automatically. These attacks will stop when the player Recalls the Kinsect or when it runs out of stamina.
Monster Hunter World Insect Glaive Build
When the Kinsect lands an attack, a small dust cloud will be left behind. If ths dust cloud is hit by the player or friendly fire, it explodes and deals damage to the monster. If the monster moves away, the Kinsect will still track and attack the tagged body part, but the dust clouds will stay in their original positions.
