Low on hearts means the warning beep is on: half a heart or less when Link has 3 to 5 hearts in all, 1 heart or less with 6 to 8, 2 hearts or less with 9 to 11, and 3 hearts or less with 12 to 14.
Each of these kills also counts toward a Piece of Power.
In the guide books

This relation to the Spiny Beetle is just as tough. Once again, flip it with your Shield and then use your Sword. Later, use the Hook Shot.
It charges when you're lined up with it. Its hard, spiky shell shrugs off every attack. Try pushing it with your shield.
