Mastering Minecraft Mob Elimination: A Comprehensive Guide to the /kill Command

There are many reasons to eliminate mobs in Minecraft. The simplest method involves using commands, specifically the /kill command. However, this seemingly straightforward command has some nuances. This guide details how to effectively use the /kill command to target various mobs.

Before You Begin: Enabling Cheats

The /kill command requires a world with cheats enabled. If cheats aren't already activated, follow these instructions:

Java Edition:

  1. Enter your world.
  2. Press Esc.
  3. Select "Open to LAN."
  4. Toggle "Allow Commands" to "On."

Remember, this enables cheats only for that session. To permanently enable cheats, create a copy of your world with cheats enabled during the world creation process.

  2. Click the pencil icon next to the desired world.
  3. In the settings menu, toggle "Cheats" to "On."

Using the /kill Command

The basic /kill command, entered alone, will unfortunately kill the player. To target mobs, you need to add selectors.

  • Kill all mobs (excluding the player): /kill @e[type=!minecraft:player] (@e selects all entities; type=!minecraft:player excludes the player.)

  • Kill specific mobs: /kill @e[type=minecraft:chicken] (Replaces chicken with the desired mob type.)

  • Kill mobs within a radius:

    • Java Edition: /kill @e[distance=..15] (Kills mobs within 15 blocks.)
    • Bedrock Edition: /kill @e[r=10] (Kills mobs within 10 blocks.)
  • Kill specific mobs within a radius:

    • Java Edition: /kill @e[distance=..15,type=minecraft:sheep]
    • Bedrock Edition: /kill @e[r=10,type=minecraft:sheep]

The game autocompletes commands, minimizing the need for memorization.

Important Selectors:

  • @p: Nearest player
  • @r: Random player
  • @a: All players
  • @e: All entities
  • @s: Yourself

Minecraft is available on PlayStation, Xbox, Nintendo Switch, PC, and mobile devices.
