Bug Room Code Combinations
2-3-9	3-2-9	9-2-3
2-9-3	3-9-2	9-3-2

To escape the bug room, you must enter a three-digit code containing the numbers 2, 3, and 9 on the keypad. The correct code for the bug room is random for every playthrough, so you must use trial and error to unlock the door.

The clue for the puzzle is just intuition, knowing that the most used numbers on the keypad are most likely the cleanest due to them being overused to open the door time and time again.
