More of keeping track of who has a high price and wants to let people on their island, don't care if it is going up or down, want that high price.

I sold around 160 last week and mine never got any higher than that.

Did tarantula island again last night and left with 38 tarantulas in my pockets. I had no clue you could run far enough away from them once they start chasing and quickly catch them if you space it right.

Also once I realized to just run off all the other bugs as quickly as possible, I was spawning multiple tarantulas every few minutes. I wish it was possible to run water bugs off instead of having to catch them.

Can someone ELI5 for Tarantula farming? I've been to bamboo islands a couple of times but didn't see a Tarantula at all. I've seen maybe 2 on my island in the last week or so but got bitten both times. Do I need to bring multiple stronger axes when I travel? Or do I just dig everything up? Do I leave holes or fill them in?

Ok and then if I see a tarantula do you just sneak up on them like other bugs? Should I bring medicine in case I get smoked by them?

It's a game of red light, green light. When they see you, have your net out and triggered. When they lift up, stop. When they go down, proceed closer. Hold the net up until you get close enough to catch it. Also, run all the other bugs off and be sure to keep an eye on the water bugs. Tarantulas won't spawn with the other bugs active.

If you trigger it and it charges at you, you can run and build enough of a distance to turn around and catch them. Dying is no big deal.

Best time is between 7pm-5am. I've got my Switch set to Pacific time and have been doing it early morning the last few days.

You'll miss Bunny Day (Easter). Not missing much other than eggs being absolutely everywhere. The cool thing about Animal Crossing is that it will come back around every year. So you never truly miss something for good.

Mother of God... holy cow, if I could sell my turnips at that price

Is that island still open? I would love to go sell my supply lol

ETA: I just joined a group, I'll see if one pops up this week

My girlfriend is in a FB group and we just lucked up. Done with turnips for the week:

That's just dirty time skipping to find a price, I don't want to cheat. Rather get a price from someone playing right. You can find discords a plenty with those prices at any time of the day along with buying turnips whenever you want to since you are already doing that.

Her town was empty with not even the new houses yet. She still had a tent.

She had a small town hall and no fruit trees. She claimed she was new to the game and all she wanted was new fruit and whatever items people had in storage and didn't want.

I had no reason to believe she was cheating the game.
