If using Glacier2, must to use reaper thread?

I am learning Glacier2 and Database connection pool,
I find the demo using glacier2,but using reap thread too in demoj/database.
In my practice, The Glacier2 can automatically refresh the session, when the session is timeout,the glaicer2 will call the session's destroy method.
Why use reaper thread in the Database Demo?

thanks.
