How To Catch An Ant In Animal Crossing: New Horizons

<p>Ants are a <a href="https://www.gamespot.com/articles/animal-crossing-new-horizons-bugs-guide-how-to-cat/1100-6475001/">rare bug in Animal Crossing: New Horizons</a> that can show up all day, all year, but require some specific conditions to catch. It's simple, but time consuming. Ants will only appear on rotting food, and there doesn't appear to be a way to make fruit rot in New Horizons, even if you leave it on the ground for weeks. Turnips are exempt from this--they're the only way to get ants to show up on your island that we know of. Here's what you need to do.</p><h2 dir="ltr">How To Catch An Ant</h2><p dir="ltr">To catch ants in Animal Crossing: New Horizons, you need to follow this step-by-step guide:</p><ol><li dir="ltr">Buy turnips from Daisy Mae</li><li dir="ltr">Set aside 10 turnips</li><li dir="ltr">Leave them for one week to rot</li><li dir="ltr">Catch ants that appear on the spoiled turnips</li></ol><figure data-align="center" data-size="large" data-img-src="https://gamespot1.cbsistatic.com/uploads/original/1594/15949828/3659545-ants3.jpg" data-ref-id="1300-3659545" data-ratio="0.5625" data-width="1280" data-embed-type="image" style="width: 1280px"><a href="https://gamespot1.cbsistatic.com/uploads/original/1594/15949828/3659545-ants3.jpg"><img alt="Ants trailing off of a spoiled turnip in New Horizons." src="https://gamespot1.cbsistatic.com/uploads/original/1594/15949828/3659545-ants3.jpg" srcset="https://gamespot1.cbsistatic.com/uploads/original/1594/15949828/3659545-ants3.jpg 1280w, https://gamespot1.cbsistatic.com/uploads/scale_medium/1594/15949828/3659545-ants3.jpg 480w" sizes="(max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px" data-width="1280"></a><figcaption>Ants trailing off of a spoiled turnip in New Horizons.</figcaption></figure><p>This sounds simple, but there are a few extra things to be aware of. Ants will appear on spoiled turnips as a long colony, taking bits of turnip away into an ant hill. If you miss with your net, they will scatter and disappear, but don't worry! Just leave the spoiled turnip on the ground and return later. Ants will eventually re-appear. Rain may prevent them from showing up, so if it's raining on your island, just have patience and come back when the weather clears up.</p><a href="https://www.gamespot.com/articles/how-to-catch-an-ant-in-animal-crossing-new-horizon/1100-6476377/?ftag=CAD-01-10abi2f/">Continue Reading at GameSpot</a>
