Why catch bugs? WHY CATCH BUGS!?!?! "Slaps the reader" Catching bugs had many
rewards, such as the "Golden Net". "Ha ha! I can see your eyes sparkling with
glee!" The Golden Net marks the skill of a true player. ...that and the
golden fishing rod....BUT NO ONE CARES ABOUT FISH! Also you will get a little
house decoration (A butterfly) on the side of your house. And the ability to go
up to your best friend and say..."Ha!!!! I got all the bugs!! NE NE NE-Ne NEEE!
Ha ha ha ha *cough* ha *cough*h.ugh..*cough*..he..hhhe...*falls over*"

5. Catching certain bugs, and special coditions
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ok, ok, we all no it's hard to catch ALL the bugs? But why? It's because of
those DUMB, STUPID Bagworms and spiders!!! Heres a list on "HOW" to catch all
the really strange bugs.
Bee - There are 3 bee's Every day. They are in 3 seperate tree's in your town,
when you shake one of the bee trees, bees will fall out, they will cycle
around the tree 2 or 3 times, either the 2nd or 3rd (I fogot wich) time
they fly around, swipe your net at them.
Note: You need to stand behind the tree (Thanks Nintendo magazine)
Bagworm: These are annoying as English class. You can here them...but where
are they? Why they're buried silly! dig and dig and dig in the acre you
hear them in loudest, and they will eventualy crawl on out. Don't lose sight
of them! Catch em' with your net!!!!
Note: I hate the Bagworm
Spider: Hairy, creepy, crawly, yup they're in Animal Crossing. Spiders are in
Trees, Sometimesthey randomly fall out, with out you even doing anything,
sometimes you have to shake a treefor them to fall on out, these are
EXTREMELY hard to find, so you find one,
YOU CATCH IT!!!!!!
Mole Cricket: Same as the Bagworm
Note: I hate the Bagworm
Snail: Snails appear on rocks, they are extremely rare, and they CAN get away
from you! (Go figure)\
Pillbug: These are invisible. They are hiddin in rocks, you can tell wich rocks
they are in, bywatching your villiagers stare
at them. Just hit the rock and out pops a pillbug (Now visisble) Just catch
it with your net.
Q: Uhh...I cut down all my trees, can I still get bees?
A: No, either go to a friends town, or plant some new trees.
Q: How do I catch pillbugs?
A: Look at the "Catching certain bugs, and special conditions" section.
Q: What bug sells for the most?
A: Giant beetle (10,000 bells)
Q: I caught all the fish, and about to catch all the bugs..will I lose my fish
design on the sideof my house for catching all the bugs?
A: I'm sorry but I don't know, I've never caught all the fish....*Sob* *Sob*
