Command
There are many reasons to eliminate mobs in Minecraft. The most efficient method is using commands, specifically the /kill
command. While seemingly simple, this command offers nuanced control. This guide details how to use it effectively.
Prerequisites: Enabling Cheats
Before using any commands, ensure your Minecraft world has cheats enabled. Instructions for both Java and Bedrock editions are provided below.
The /kill
Command: Syntax and Usage
The basic /kill
command, typed into the chat box, will unfortunately kill you. To target mobs, you need to add specific syntax.

This command targets all entities (@e
) except players (type=!minecraft:player
).

with the desired mob type (e.g., minecraft:sheep
, minecraft:zombie
).
