Bee Mob Wiki Guide

This Minecraft tutorial explains all about bees with screenshots and step-by-step instructions. Let’s learn about bees in Minecraft.

Background

The following is a picture of what a bee looks like in Minecraft:

Hostility Level	Neutral Mob
Health Points	10 health points  x 5
Where to Find	In the Plains, Flower Forest, Birch Forest, Sunflower Plains and Meadow biomes
Weapon	None
Attack Method	Stings you, inflicting the Poison effect
Drops	None
Experience Points	1-3 experience points

Hostility Level (Neutral)

A bee is a neutral mob. The term mob is short for mobile and is used to refer to all living, moving creatures in the game such as chickens, creepers, and bees. Because a bee is a neutral mob, it will only attack you in Survival mode if you attack the bee first. It will never attack you in Creative mode.

A bee is a unique mob because it can only attack once. As soon as it attacks, it loses its stinger and will die within 60 seconds.

Health Points

In Minecraft, a bee has 5 hearts

. This gives a bee 10 health points (because 1 heart = 2 health points). To kill a bee, you need to inflict 10 points of damage to the bee.

Where to Find Bees

In Minecraft, bees can be found in the Plains, Flower Forest, Birch Forest, Sunflower Plains and Meadow biomes.

Plains

Flower Forest

Birch Forest

Sunflower Plains

Meadow

If you are having trouble finding a bee, you can summon a bee using a cheat or you can use a spawn egg.

Weapon

A bee does not carry a weapon.

Attack Method

In Minecraft, if you try to attack a bee, it will sting you inflicting you with the Poison effect. Once the bee has attacked, it will lose its stinger and die within 60 seconds.

TIP: If you are holding a flower, a bee will not attack you. Instead, the bee will turn upside down and wait. Once you stop holding the flower, then the bee will attack and sting you.

Drops

When you kill a bee in Minecraft, it will not drop anything. It is one of the few mobs that when killed, does not drop any items.

Experience Points

As you play the game, you will gain experience. The most common way to gain experience is by killing mobs. When a mob is killed you will see tiny green and yellow balls appear and move towards you.

These orbs represent experience points. When you kill a bee, you will gain 1-3 experience points.
