Shaking Tree for Wasp Nest

Up to 5 Wasp Nests can spawn in different Hardwood or Cedar Trees on your island everyday. A single shake is enough to check for each tree. Just make sure you know how to deal with the Wasps that come out of the nests as they can sting you. Either catch the Wasps with a Net, or scare them away with a Party Popper.
