Nat is the chameleon who runs the bug-catching contest. If you win the contest, you get a
trophy, or if you break the previous record for the day, he will give you a normal
furniture item that is not in Nook's Spotlight or in Redd shop.Here you can add bugs that
you give to Nat and how many points they are worth.
Some of the bugs you need to catch before the Bug-Off, because many of the bugs on this
list are not available during Bug-Off(9am-6pm).
The points change every time you give Nat the same bug. The list below has lowest to
highest values for each bug. This list is a work in progress, if you catch a bug that gets
scored outside of the listed range, please update the charts. This page is a work in
progress.
