So you've been stung by a swarm of wasps in Animal Crossing New Horizons and you're short on bells. Or maybe you're stingy and don't want to shell out the extra bells to buy some medicine. Well, you are in luck because there is a way to craft your own medicine free of charge. By collecting the DIY Recipe players can make an infinite amount of Medicine for free, never having to spend another bell to cure their hideous deformity ever again.
There are plenty of DIY crafting recipes that players can unlock in Animal Crossing New Horizons, one of them being Medicine. This allows players the ability to craft medicine using items found on the island to cure a wasp sting instead of spending bells to buy medicine at the store. This guide will teach players where to find the DIY Recipe for Medicine and what items are needed in order to craft the recipe.
How to Craft Medicine in Animal Crossing New Horizons
The first thing a player needs in order to craft Medicine is the DIY Crafting Recipe. This is easily obtained by getting stung by a swarm of wasps and then talking to a villager. The village will be alarmed at the sight of your swollen eyeball and will give the player the DIY Recipe for Medicine.
The crafting recipe for Medicine is very simple. Players will need 3 weeds and a wasps nest. Weeds can be found all around the island and can be picked up by pressing the "Y" button. Some weeds also grow back daily which makes them an endless supply, and if the island is picked clean players can use Nook Miles Tickets to visit islands covered in weeds that players can collect for both recipes and Nook Miles challenges.
Players will also need a wasps nest which, if the player has been stung, should be easy to find since wasp nests drop from trees before the wasps attack the player. Players can also pick up wasps nests by pressing "Y".
Players can also stock up on wasps nests to craft into Medicine for later by shaking trees with wasps nests and then running into the nearest building. This will prevent the wasps from stinging the player but will leave the wasps nest behind for the player to safely pick up. But , a player will need 3 weeds for every wasp's nest they find to craft a single medicine.
Animal Crossing New Horizons is available now on the Nintendo Switch.
