'''Bees''' are mobs that reside inside their hives (natural generation) or [[Cattails_(Reeds)|skeps]] (Player created) until disturbed. When a breaking a populated hive or skep, there is a chance that an angry swarm of bees will chase the player until they despawn (two minutes). Unfortunately you cannot defend yourself against aggressive bees making escape the only option.
== Natural Generation (Spawning) ==
'''Bees''' are mobs that reside inside their hives. Hives will spawn in light levels XX and higher, at temperatures between -XX and XX, in areas with as little as 0.XX rainfall.  


When angered, Bees will attack anything nearby. Placing a decoy [[straw dummy]] near your apiary provides an alternative target for angry bees.
== Behaviors ==
Bees will ignore players unless provoked by by breaking a populated hive or skep. If angered, the swarm will chase the player until despawning (two minutes).
 
=== Receiving Damage ===
Bees cannot be damaged, but angry bees will attack anything nearby including players, mobs and domesticated animals. Unfortunately players cannot defend themselves against aggressive bees making escape the only option. Placing a decoy [[straw dummy]] near a player apiary provides an alternative target for angry bees.
 
== Domestication ==
Bees cannot be domesticated, but can be collected in [[Cattail Tops|skeps]] and transported for propagation. See [[Beekeeping]] for information regarding keeping bees.


== Harvesting ==
== Harvesting ==
Breaking a hive or a skep provides players with:
* [[Honeycomb]], which is processed to create
** [[Wax]] used in crafting candles (for lanterns) or sealing food storage crocks
** [[Honey]] used in crafting poultices and [[cooking]]


Bees are often farmed for their valuable [[Honeycomb]]. Honeycomb provides [[Wax]] used in crafting candles (for lanterns) or sealing food storage crocks, and [[Honey]] used in crafting poultices and cooking recipes.
