How do you catch a tarantula in Animal Crossing?
Catching a tarantula in Animal Crossing can be a bit tricky but totally doable! First, you gotta find one, which usually means nighttime hunting since they appear from 7 PM to 4 AM. Once you spot a tarantula, slow your roll and approach it slowly by holding the A button to walk stealthily with your net. The moment it raises its legs in defense, stop moving! Wait for it to calm down, then sneak a bit closer. When you're in range, release the A button to swing your net and scoop that spooky spider up!

Honestly, it's all about the patience game. Hold A, creep up, and wait for the perfect moment. Too much hassle for me, I stick to fishing.
Just run at it with your net swinging! Worst case, you faint and wake up in your virtual bed. Best case, you catch it on the first try!
equip ur net and sneak up on em slow. when they look ready to jump, stop. then go a bit closer and BOOM, net em.
