How To Kill All Mobs in Minecraft
Mastering Minecraft Mob Elimination: A Comprehensive Guide to the /kill 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.
- Killing All Mobs:
/kill @e[type=!minecraft:player]
This command targets all entities (@e) except players (type=!minecraft:player).
- Killing Specific Mob Types:
/kill @e[type=minecraft:chicken]
This example eliminates all chickens. Replace minecraft:chicken with the desired mob type (e.g., minecraft:sheep, minecraft:zombie).

Targeting Mobs by Distance:
-
Java Edition:
/kill @e[distance=..15](kills mobs within 15 blocks) -
Bedrock Edition:
/kill @e[r=10](kills mobs within 10 blocks)
To target a specific mob type within a radius:
- Java Edition:
/kill @e[distance=..15,type=minecraft:sheep] - Bedrock Edition:
/kill @e[r=10,type=minecraft:sheep]
Command autocompletion assists in accurate input.

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