What does Reese do with all those beetles?

[Koopa K]

And how does she afford to pay hundreds of thousands for them? I need answers!

 

[Scully]

she has an underground beetle fighting ring. booker's been trying to book her for yrs but cyrus and harriet help her disguise tbh

 

[Xara]

why would reese even accept beetles


if anyone came near me with a bunch f beetles, i'd start yelling

 

[dino]

the better question is, when you give them to reese, where....does she put them.... are they just...crawling in her pockets...do they live in retail, is it a beetle sanctuary

 

[ZebraQueen]

and what about the sharks? she give tons of cash but were they go

 

[MayorNoodl]

She sells them on the black market maybe? There's like... a underground area where she has large fish tanks and beetle cages. She's making the dough and is keeping the business open. So don't be too nosy. You won't like the truth!

 

[Arabelle]

Lol can say the same thing with turnips... Sometimes she'd buy thousands of them...and pay you a lot for them too.

Does she eat the turnips? .__. ohhh maybe she feeds them to the beetles. Lol

 

[Tobiume]

she eats them

om nom nom

 

[ali.di.magix]

She sells them to the black market for an even better price, where Nat purchases them for his dinner

 

[TheMisaMisa]

She's an underground criminal.

 

[Celeste13]

She sells them to businesses that use them for food. Think about it, apart from fish and birds there doesn't appeared to be other unevolved species. Beetle Burgers, anyone?

 

[ItsMilkypink]

The sharks must go in the pond beside ReTail. Why else would ReTail always spawn with a pond beside it?

 

[Captain James]

In HHD, Reese reveals that Cyrus can not only customize furniture, but also turn anything into bells. She even mentions sharks specifically and Cyrus turning them into bells.

 

[Burumun]

They're actually sold as pets in Japan, plus people do collect framed bugs, so I imagine she sells them to pet stores and collectors.

 

[GreenLeaf]

right but in that case I think
they sell the fish to chip when he is not around for the tournaments I guess same for the insects to nat
I mean they look always hungry ^^

 

[Blueskyy]

She puts them in villagers' houses to freak them out and make them think they need to clean their houses even better than they did 3 hours prior.

 

[GreenLeaf]

but the ones that are in the houses are different! (plus why they're the only insects thar we can kill??)

 

[Perri]

Beetle Army~

 

[buttonfactories]

I heard a theory once about how Tom Nook was behind a completely self-sustaining economy in your ACNL town, using the mayor as the primary component. Players sell beetles to Reese, Reese sells beetles to Nook (for food), and Nook gets his money from human characters upgrading their houses.

 

[Animecafe102]

Ok honestly though what does she do with anything you sell her? XDDD that furniture never goes up for sale so where's it go?o.o I bet she's a hoarder, she just has it all piling in her house and Cyrus is so tired because he works another job to pay for all her junk
