How to get rid of villagers on your Animal Crossing: New Horizons island? 

There is a rumor circulating that you can’t kick out the original members out of your island. Well, if at all that exists, you can always use your Amiibo card to do it.

Once you’ve decided which villager you are planning to get rid of, you just need not give any attention to him/her. Do not indulge yourself with them, or try to do any activity around them. 

You could also try fencing their house. This will lock them out of their house, making them roam around the village and eventually leave it. 

While you do this, make sure you keep interacting with the other members of your island, who you don’t want to get rid of. While this still can’t hold back the villagers who are willingly trying to leave, you can at least be assured that you tried your best to keep them.

How to choose a villager for your island?

There are high chances that a villager from your friend’s island might move into your island. So if you are trying to avoid such incidents, just make sure that you have your internet turned off. This way they can’t move in and you get a chance to choose a villager particularly. 

There are also members on the campsite who might try to move in. You can go to residential services and discuss a resident with Isabelle. Here, you can complain about the animal on the campsite.
