Open the 3 x 3 crafting table. Place one iron ingot in the center of the grid (the second box in row 2). Place another iron ingot in the first box in row 3.
You’ll may also find nests in Plains, Sunflower Plains, and Flower Forest biomes, but not as often. Each time a bee leaves the nest or hive after spending the night, the honey level increases by 1. You won’t be able to harvest honeycomb until the nest or hive reaches honey level 5.
Open the 3 x 3 crafting table. In the first row, place 1 stick in the second box. In the second row, place these items in order: one stick, one piece of charcoal or coal, and one stick. In the third row, place a piece of wood or a log in each of the three boxes. Clear one block just above the nest or hive to allow smoke to pass through. Dig one block directly below the nest or hive. Place the campfire into the whole you’ve dug. The campfire lights automatically.
In Java Edition, place a carpet over the campfire; the smoke will flow through the carpet, but the bees will be safe. In Bedrock Edition (Windows 10, consoles, etc. ), don’t use a carpet—instead, put the campfire in a hole below the hive and surround the hole with a fence. You’ll also need to extinguish the campfire after harvesting the honeycomb (which is not necessary in other versions)—you can do so by placing a water block on the campfire.
Java, Windows 10, and Education Edition: Click and hold the nest. Pocket Edition: Tap and hold the nest. Xbox One: Press and hold RT. PS4: Press and hold R2. Nintendo Switch: Press and hold ZR.
If you’re playing Bedrock Edition, don’t forget to extinguish the campfire. You can relight it in the future by shooting it with a flaming arrow, dispensing flint or steel onto it, or hitting it with items with fire aspect.
