Don't speak to them unless they have a bubble over their head, which may indicate that they're thinking about moving (though sometimes bubbles over their head might mean they want to give you something). If that process seems like too much work, your next-best bet is ignoring your future evictee completely. That way you won't lose any progress if you need to restart.

If you're trying to get rid of a villager and you have a visitor at the campsite, I recommend immediately running to the site when you first load up the game. If they don't choose the right villager, you'll need to re-roll by completely exiting the software and going through the process again. You can accept their initial offer if they're trying to trade places with the critter you dislike.

This is key: They'll randomly choose a villager to evict. If you have a full island with 10 residents and a villager visiting your campsite, you can talk to the visitor over and over again to convince them to move to your island.
