Besides having an empty glass bottle or shears prepared, you should primarily focus on the campfire. You\u2019ll use it to calm the bees down so that they don\u2019t attack you when you take their precious golden liquid.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-163904\" src=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/image\/upload\/v1614711776\/v99bejf1pua21_stbcm1.png\" width=\"1366\" height=\"705\"><\/p>\n<h3><b>Step 2: Find bees<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Now, let\u2019s head out to the open fields. Bees love to build hives on trees close to flowers. They use these flowers to collect pollen, forming the basis of honey-making. Once you spot a bee, you can follow it to its hive to see if there\u2019s any honey for you to collect.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-163905\" src=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/sft\/articles\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2021\/05\/Header_esi8b8.jpg\" width=\"1170\" height=\"500\" srcset=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2021\/05\/Header_esi8b8.jpg 1170w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2021\/05\/Header_esi8b8-300x128.jpg 300w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2021\/05\/Header_esi8b8-1024x438.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2021\/05\/Header_esi8b8-768x328.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1170px) 100vw, 1170px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3><b>Step 3: Collect your honey<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The hive will be dripping with honey once it\u2019s full. Before you take any of it, remember to put your campfire down directly beneath it, preferably with the bees inside. With them sound asleep, you can fill your glass bottle or use your shears to collect honeycomb. If you have enough of the latter, you can make your own hive at home for taming bees in Minecraft.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-163907\" src=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/sft\/articles\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2021\/05\/8zoafjwcbv441_emau4t.jpg\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\"><\/p>\n<h3><b>The Bear Necessities<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">With the golden honey at hand, you can make delicious food or create a bee farm. You\u2019ll be buzzing with excitement after breeding bees and watching them get to work on the local flowers.
