Animal Crossing: New Horizons new bugs to catch this October

A new month in real life means a new month in Animal Crossing: New Horizons... and that can only mean one thing to avid players; there are more bugs!

If you're looking for all the new fish and sea creatures you can get your hands on, check back soon when our guide will be up.

Now that it's October, more bugs will be popping up on your island, and while there might be one new one, there's still plenty to catch if you have any gaps.

We hope you're ready for an incredibly underwhelming month of catching bugs this October...

Only one new insect can be caught this month and that is the Ladybug. It has previously been available on islands in the northern hemisphere from March to June, so if you missed it the first time now is your chance to snag one again.

New bugs to catch in October

Critters found on flowers

Ladybug - you can find these critters on your flowers between 8am and 5pm.

They are incredibly easy to catch and as such, they don't sell for much.

That's it for all the new bugs available, make sure you catch em' all this month to grow your museum and complete your Critterpedia.

In other news, the latest update for Animal Crossing: New Horizons went live on September 30, getting your island ready for Halloween.

If you're wondering about the new fish this month too, check back here soon!
