The arrival of the spooky season makes October one of the best months to revisit your island. New bugs, fish, and deep-sea creatures can be found and caught all over, with Southern Hemisphere players enjoying a surprising abundance of new wildlife. At the end of the month, players can also celebrate Halloween, one of the biggest events in the island calendar.
Much like September in , October is one of the best months for critter collectors. The bugs, fish, and deep-sea creatures that can be found are particularly lively with the change of seasons, making this one of the best times to catch and add to a Museum Collection. Unlike September, however, it's also an excellent month for social animals, with a few events, both big and small.

Chat with your villagers to catch Fleas in . Some may mention they have a strange itch or want to scratch themselves. This indicates a Flea is on them: to catch it, hit the villager with a bug-catching net. Fleas may also appear as small black dots on villagers.
