Collecting honey in Minecraft may not be easy, but it is very much fun once players learn the correct process for how to do it.
Finding Bees and Beehives
First, you will need to find a bee’s nest or hive, which is not an easy task since bees like to build their nests in hidden and rather hard-to-reach places. They naturally appear in biomes such as plains, sunflower plains, and flower forests. As clichéd as this may sound, you will know them by the bees that surround them.
Developing an Area for Keeping Bees
There is the saying that goes, ‘A place for everything, everything in its place’ Before actually gathering honey, it is advisable that you create a debt that can act as the bees’ home. With 6 planks and 3 honeycombs, it is possible to create a beehive. Take them closer to flowers so that the bees can be happy and continue to work.
Harvesting Honey
To collect honey, one will need a bottle made from glass. Eventually, a beehive or bee nest will be filled with honey (you will see honey dripping from it). Take a bottle in your hand and right-click on bees. However, as much bees love honey, they turn aggressive and start to attack.
Avoiding Bee Aggression
To deter bees from pursuing you, you need a campfire. Position the campfire below the beehive or the bee nest if any is within sight. Smoke will help in calming the bees down, which will provide a good opportunity for the collection of honey.
Using Collected Honey
Below are some of the uses of Honey in the game of Minecraft. It can be consumed to regain hunger and dispel the influence of poison or used to create honey blocks, which are excellent for constructing and are sticky.
Thus, by reading this article, you will acquire a wealth of knowledge regarding honey collection methods in a rather short amount of time. Happy beekeeping!
