Why Go to Scorpion Island?

Scorpions are Easy Money

Scorpions are one of the highest-selling bugs. If you need cash to pay your house loan, getting to Scorpions Island is a great way to earn lots of Bells!

With a selling price of 8,000 Bells at Nook's Cranny, catching Scorpions is a high-risk, high-reward activity.

Respawn on the Mystery Island

The biggest benefit to hunting Scorpions on a Mystery Island is that you wake up on the same island if you get stung and pass out.

They will also spawn at a higher rate than on your own island, allowing you to quickly get back to hunting!

Strategies for Catching Scorpions

Dig Holes For Safety

Dig a perimeter of holes that you can jump into for safety. Scorpions will not be able to jump over them, so you're safe.

Catch scorpions from across a hole

While in your safe space, catch a scorpion chasing you by using your net to catch the critter. It won't reach across the hole!

Clear Out the Land

Get rid of all the weeds, flowers, and rocks for better visibility and to avoid surprise attacks. Drop the items cluttering up your inventory on the beach!
