Shaking Trees in Animal Crossing New Horizons

Maybe you’ve had a few lucky shakes in a row where you keep getting Bells when you shake trees. Whoever said money doesn’t grow on trees must be feeling pretty silly right now. And then reality hits you like a literal swarm of bees and you get a nasty sting.

Shaking trees in Animal Crossing is a tricky high risk, high reward game to play. If you want to cash in on the #shakethetreechallenge, then it’s pretty easy to get started.

Make sure you’re facing a tree, then press the A button to shake something loose. If you’re lucky you might land something new to decorate your house. If you’re not so lucky, then you’ll need to go grab some medicine to cure your bee sting.

Technically, you don’t need to cure your bee sting using medicine, but it’s the fastest way to get rid of it. Otherwise, it’ll clear up over time and your animal friends will stop freaking out about your injury.

Here’s a quick breakdown of how to shake trees in Animal Crossing new Horizons:

  1. Face a tree.

    It’s really that easy!

  2. Press the A button.

    This will shake the tree and let down a bag of Bells, some new furniture or a swarm of bees that can’t wait to sting you for shaking their home out of the tree.

That’s all there is to know about how to shake trees in Animal Crossing New Horizons. If there’s anything else you want to learn about in this game, then just check out our guides wiki to find some great information.
