FAQ

What happens if I break a Bee Nest without Silk Touch?

It drops nothing, and any bees inside become angry and fly out to attack.

How do I keep the bees safe when breaking the nest?

Mine it with a Silk Touch tool; the nest drops itself with up to three bees preserved inside.

Is a Bee Nest renewable?

Yes, saplings planted near flowers have a small chance to grow into a tree with a bee nest attached.

What tool breaks a Bee Nest fastest?

An axe, though no specific tool tier is required to obtain the drop with Silk Touch.
