Where to find Mantis, Beetles, and other bugs
Mantis will sit on flowers between March-November in the Northern Hemisphere. Similarly, its variant, the orchard mantis, sits on white flowers. Wasps can be found all year round and fall down from trees when they are shaken. Additionally, variations of the cicada, like the brown, robust, and walker, sit on trees during summer.
While the Tiger beetle is found on the ground, in order to obtain other variations, you will have to look elsewhere. For instance, the Jewel Beetle is found on trees and the Dung Beetle near snowballs. Players can also collect various stag beetles. The golden stag sits on palm trees and is the most lucrative beetle to catch as it sells for 12,000 bells.
