Wormhole NPCs are called sleeper drones (usually sleepers for the sake of simplicity). They don't have bounties like K-Space rats, instead each type of sleepers drop a certain number of tags from specific type(s). These tags are called blue loot (because they are blue in color) and there are NPC buy orders at fixed prices for them in stations. The sleepers won't drop any modules or loot other than blue loot and each and everyone of them will always have at least 2 pieces of blue loot in their wrecks.

~~Wormhole salvagers should always have a cloak~~ and ~~probe launcher~~ (~~with probes~~) ~~fitted and online~~. ~~A damage control II and warp core stabilizer~~ are ~~also suggested. Expanded Cargoholds are not required as wormhole loot is not very large~~.

The main income of WH site runners comes from this blue loot and sleeper salvage. Sleeper salvage is used in [[Tech_3_Production|T3 (strategic cruisers) production]]. Unfortunately most of sleeper salvage is worthless because of the high drop rate, the only valuable sleeper salvage are Melted Nanoribbons which can be sold higher than 6 million isk at time of writing.

When salvaging in a Wormhole, beware that you are the treasure ship and a solo stealth bomber can destroy you easily. People should remain with salvagers on site to help protect them when a threat suddenly appears. For smaller sites, a salvaging destroyer can be used but for higher class wormholes, a Noctis is the better option. Salvaging ships usually have warp core stabilizers in their low slots to be able to flee and warp out. Expanded cargoholds are usually not needed as sleeper loot and salvage is low on volume.
