Bob's Rotten Head is affected by many tear modifiers and some bomb modifiers. Notable exceptions and precautions are listed below.
Bob's Rotten Head cannot directly impact Beggars, Slot Machines, or Blood Donation Machines, just passing through, but can destroy them with the blast damage if it impacts anything nearby and open Secret Rooms, Super Secret Rooms, or destroy rocks like any other bomb.

Bob's Bladder / Bob's Curse / Bobby-Bomb / Bomber Boy / Fast Bombs / Scatter Bombs / Mr. Mega: No effect.
Book of Virtues: Spawns wisps in the middle ring. The wisps shoot arcing green tears with decreased range, with a 7.5% chance of firing an explosive, poisonous tear.
Car Battery: No effect.
Continuum: Bob's Rotten Head can now travel through walls and appear out of the opposite wall, similar to a portal-type mechanic.
Cricket's Body/ The Parasite: no longer travels through the wall; instead he bounces off it, like with Rubber Cement, and then travels for the rest of its duration and then explodes.
- Causes two smaller tears to appear and then explode. Tears do not look like the normal head.
Explosivo / Sticky Bombs: If Bob's Rotten Head sticks to an enemy (sometimes with Explosivo, always with Sticky Bombs), the explosion is delayed but will deal 110 damage.
- No longer sticks to enemies.
Flat Stone: Will cause Bob's Rotten Head to bounce once, exploding twice and leaving two gas clouds.

Lil Spewer - Have Isaac die to his own explosion from Ipecac, Bob's Rotten Head, or a Horf! pill.

The Parasite - Pick up any 2 of the following items in a single run: Bob's Rotten Head, Dead Cat, Cricket's Head, and Tammy's Head ( Any 2 items that have the 'dead' item tag).

Sloth's full name is Bob Sloth, revealed in a QnA. Because Sloth drops this item, it may be his head.
