Royal Jelly can be used on a bee to turn it into a Rare, Epic, Legendary, Mythic, gifted, or mutated bee in Bee Swarm Simulator. It’s recommended to use it on Basic Bees, but you can try your luck on an already transformed bee to see if you can unlock a new type of bee. It’s not guaranteed you’ll get a better quality bee after using the Royal Jelly—if you use it on an Epic Bee, there’s a high chance it will become a Rare bee instead.

There are several ways to get Royal Jelly. You can find it in the field, hidden spots, or in the Star Hall, or get some by completing quests, buying it from the Royal Jelly Dispensers, Shop, or with Robux, completing the Stick Bug Challenge, clearing sprouts, playing Memory Match, or defeating mobs.

But with so many ways to get Royal Jelly, it’s hard to know how to spend your time to farm it. Here are the best ways to get Royal Jelly.

The best way to farm Royal Jelly in Bee Swarm Simulator is by defeating mobs, clearing sprouts, completing the Stick Bug Challenge, and buying it. But the best farming method depends on how far into the game you are.

The easiest way to get Royal Jelly is buying it with honey in the Royal Jelly Shop. The price starts at 250,000 Honey, and it goes up as you buy more Royal Jelly until it caps at 1,000,000 Honey. You’ll need at least 15 bees to get access to the Royal Jelly Shop.

Clearing a sprout will give you the most Royal Jelly at once and you don’t need to be far in the game, but you’ll need better quality gear to farm it fast. The better the sprout quality, the more pollen you’ll need to clear it, and if you have a scooper that collects only a few pollen at a time, it will take a long time to clear it and get your Royal Jellies.

Another problem with the sprout is you need to be fast to see the Royal Jelly token appear and grab it before it fades away, but since a lot of tokens will be spawning at the same time, it’s easy to miss it or just be too slow to get there in time.

If you just started playing, it’s best to farm Royal Jelly by defeating mobs. All the regular mobs you find in the fields—Ladybug, Rhino Beetle, Spider, Scorpion, Mantis, and Werewolf—drop Royal Jelly, but it’s not guaranteed. Since they respawn in minutes, you can keep defeating them to farm Royal Jelly.

For the players who completed the Science Bear quest line and have the Translator, the best way to get Royal Jelly is by completing the Stick Bug Challenge. It will award you a lot of Royal Jellies at once.
