Frequently asked questions about farming!

=== What do I upgrade next for Farming Fortune? ===
You can look up your profile on the [https://eliteskyblock.com/ Elite Farmers website] to determine missing upgrades. Some things will have to be input manually due to the information not being in Hypixel's API.

Another option is downloading the mod [[SkyHanni]] and using the <code>/ff</code> command in game. You can then click on the paper icon on the left of the menu that appears and get a list of upgrades. Note that nowadays this is quite outdated and is missing some of the newer upgrades, but it will still get you up to speed with many baseline upgrades.

=== How much money/coins should I be making? ===
There are a few ways you can see estimated profit/hr.

* <big>'''[[SkyHanni]]''' -</big> Use the <code>/sh money per hour</code> feature to see a list of your estimated profit per hour for each crop.
* <big>'''Elite Website''' -</big> Visit your profile on [https://eliteskyblock.com/ eliteskyblock.com] and view the '''Rates''' tab, from there you can select options and view your profit per hour when selling crops to NPC.
* <big>'''[[Elite Bot]]''' -</big> Use the <code>/rates</code> command from the Elite Discord bot (available in the [[Elite Farmers | Elite Farmers Discord]]), you can enter your farming fortune number and get estimated profit when selling to NPC.

==== Axed Perk ====
The Axed perk from the [https://hypixelskyblock.minecraft.wiki/w/Essence_Shops#Forest Forest Essence Shop] grants a 2% increase to all stats on axes, including axe tools.

This perk can be purchased from [https://hypixelskyblock.minecraft.wiki/w/Rosemary Rosemary] in Galatea for 10,000 [https://hypixelskyblock.minecraft.wiki/w/Essence#Forest_Essence Forest Essence].

=== Bountiful or Blessed? ===

<big>'''Bountiful''' - </big> Use for profit, you get around {{color|color=#ffaa00|text=~200k-1.4m more coins per hour}} depending on the crop and farming fortune. Bountiful gives .2 coins per crop drop, not blocks broken. Crops with a higher drop rate like melon benefit significantly from bountiful. 
<big>'''Blessed''' - </big> Use for collections/milestones or XP, but it's not significantly faster for either. Blessed is usually only recommended when grinding xp for Farming 40.

=== Lotus Cloak or Zorro's Cape? ===

Zorro's cape is on average {{color|color=#ffaa00|text=+13.33 Farming Fortune}} better than lotus if both are maxed.

When a contest is active, even if you don't participate, maxxed Zorro's cape will be {{color|color=#ffaa00|text=+48 Farming Fortune}} better than maxxed lotus, and outside a contest it is {{color|color=#ffaa00|text=-4 Farming Fortune}} worse than lotus.

You may think that because it's worse outside a contest, you should switch to lotus, but you would have to switch in under '''2.1 seconds!''' which is realistically not happening, so always keep your Zorro's cape active.

===== TL;DR =====
Zorro's cape is better than lotus. Just make sure you have Zorro unlocked before you buy!

Farming Fortune

2026-04-24T20:04:46Z

Luna: Correcting wiki URLs (Pywikibot)

== Farming Fortune ==
Farming Fortune (or ff) is a stat that affects how many drops you get from crops with the formula similar to the one seen below 

Ever since the Garden Update, Farming Fortune has been disabled on private islands in order to get players to farm on the garden rather than their islands

== Farming Fortune Formula ==
<math>\text{Average Drops} = \text{Base Crop Drops} \times \left(1 + \frac{\text{Farming Fortune + Crop Fortune}}{100}\right)</math>

<math>\text{Guaranteed Drops} = \text{Base Crop Drops} \times \left(1 + \left\lfloor\frac{\text{Farming Fortune + Crop Fortune}}{100}\right\rfloor\right)</math>

<math>P(\text{Additional Drop}) = \text{Base Crop Drops} \times \left(\frac{\text{Farming Fortune + Crop Fortune}}{100} \bmod 1 \right)</math>

{{subtext|color=grey|text=NOTE: Just like how all other fortune stats works, every 100 Farming Fortune adds to the crop multiplier. However, for any ff that does not complete another full 100, it instead gives a percentage chance for +1 drops worth of crops 
For Example: 1650 ff = 17 drops worth + 50% chance for it to be 18}}

== How to Increase Your FF ==
By far the best way to see which upgrades are best for you, is to download [[SkyHanni]] and use <code>/ff</code> to open SkyHanni's custom ff menu, from there you can click the paper icon on the left, and select your crop on the right and then just follow what it tells you to get 
{{subtext|color=grey|text=NOTE: SkyHanni does not yet include every way possible to get ff. For example, it does not include anything to do with strength for a [https://hypixelskyblock.minecraft.wiki/w/Mooshroom_Cow_Pet#Stats Legendary Mooshroom Cow] along with a few other FF sources}}

== How to Find Your Real FF ==
The "Farming Fortune" stat in skyblock isn't your real fortune when your farming, you can find your real fortune by either using [[SkyHanni]], or adding your farming fortune and <crop> fortune together. 
'''For example''': if I have {{color|color=#ffaa00|text=1400 Farming Fortune}} and {{color|color=#ffaa00|text=250 Cocoa Beans Fortune}}, my real fortune when farming cocoa is {{color|color=#ffaa00|text=1650 Fortune}}

== Max FF for Each Crop ==

{{subtext|color=red|text=NOTE: Although Cane/Cactus have a base drop of 1, generally you break 2 blocks at once, so the max collection/h calculation assumes you get 2 cane per block}} 
<nowiki>*</nowiki>{{subtext|color=grey|text=When including average t3 dicer rng, melon max ff is technically 1,998 and max ff for pumpkin is 2,032}} 
 
Fun Fact: Although Max Fortune for mathematical hoes are calculated using a 10 Billion counter hoe, theoretically, you can gain fortune from counter up to 1 Quintillion

== Universal FF Sources ==

These are not in any particular order (e.g. price or which is most efficient to get first), they are simply lists of sources.

Frequently Asked Questions

Frequently asked questions about farming!

=== What do I upgrade next for Farming Fortune? ===
You can look up your profile on the [https://eliteskyblock.com/ Elite Farmers website] to determine missing upgrades. Some things will have to be input manually due to the information not being in Hypixel's API.

Another option is downloading the mod [[SkyHanni]] and using the <code>/ff</code> command in game. You can then click on the paper icon on the left of the menu that appears and get a list of upgrades. Note that nowadays this is quite outdated and is missing some of the newer upgrades, but it will still get you up to speed with many baseline upgrades.

=== How much money/coins should I be making? ===
There are a few ways you can see estimated profit/hr.

* <big>'''[[SkyHanni]]''' -</big> Use the <code>/sh money per hour</code> feature to see a list of your estimated profit per hour for each crop.
* <big>'''Elite Website''' -</big> Visit your profile on [https://eliteskyblock.com/ eliteskyblock.com] and view the '''Rates''' tab, from there you can select options and view your profit per hour when selling crops to NPC.
* <big>'''[[Elite Bot]]''' -</big> Use the <code>/rates</code> command from the Elite Discord bot (available in the [[Elite Farmers | Elite Farmers Discord]]), you can enter your farming fortune number and get estimated profit when selling to NPC.

=== Which pet is best? ===
'''<big>Rose Dragon</big> -''' Best pet for coins/h and collection/h.

<big>'''Mooshroom Cow''' -</big> Second best pet for coins/h (and mushroom collection/h) even at 0 strength. Equal to elephant for collection/h for all other crops from 1143 strength, better from 1172 and up. 
<big>'''Elephant''' -</big> Third best pet for collection/h for all crops. Only use if you have under 1143 strength and dont care about money.

<big>'''Rabbit''' -</big> Best pet for farming exp. Use on mushrooms for the most XP gain. 
<big>'''Bee''' -</big> Not really useful but gets good Fortune for all 3 Flower types at Mythic

==== Axed Perk ====
The Axed perk from the [https://hypixelskyblock.minecraft.wiki/w/Essence_Shops#Forest Forest Essence Shop] grants a 2% increase to all stats on axes, including axe tools.

This perk can be purchased from [https://hypixelskyblock.minecraft.wiki/w/Rosemary Rosemary] in Galatea for 10,000 [https://hypixelskyblock.minecraft.wiki/w/Essence#Forest_Essence Forest Essence].

=== Bountiful or Blessed? ===

<big>'''Bountiful''' - </big> Use for profit, you get around {{color|color=#ffaa00|text=~200k-1.4m more coins per hour}} depending on the crop and farming fortune. Bountiful gives .2 coins per crop drop, not blocks broken. Crops with a higher drop rate like melon benefit significantly from bountiful. 
<big>'''Blessed''' - </big> Use for collections/milestones or XP, but it's not significantly faster for either. Blessed is usually only recommended when grinding xp for Farming 40.

=== Lotus Cloak or Zorro's Cape? ===

Zorro's cape is on average {{color|color=#ffaa00|text=+13.33 Farming Fortune}} better than lotus if both are maxed.

When a contest is active, even if you don't participate, maxxed Zorro's cape will be {{color|color=#ffaa00|text=+48 Farming Fortune}} better than maxxed lotus, and outside a contest it is {{color|color=#ffaa00|text=-4 Farming Fortune}} worse than lotus.

You may think that because it's worse outside a contest, you should switch to lotus, but you would have to switch in under '''2.1 seconds!''' which is realistically not happening, so always keep your Zorro's cape active.

===== TL;DR =====
Zorro's cape is better than lotus. Just make sure you have Zorro unlocked before you buy!

Farming XP

== Farming Wisdom ==

Farming Wisdom increases the XP gained from crops using the following formula:

<math>\text{XP Gained} = \text{Base Crop XP} \times \left(1 + \frac{\text{Farming Wisdom}}{100}\right)</math> 
{{subtext|color=grey|text=NOTE: If [https://hypixelskyblock.minecraft.wiki/w/Derpy Derpy] is elected mayor, all farming XP is multiplied by 1.5x '''after''' calculating Farming Wisdom.}}

Farming Fortune

== Farming Fortune ==
Farming Fortune (or ff) is a stat that affects how many drops you get from crops with the formula similar to the one seen below 

Ever since the Garden Update, Farming Fortune has been disabled on private islands in order to get players to farm on the garden rather than their islands

== Farming Fortune Formula ==
<math>\text{Average Drops} = \text{Base Crop Drops} \times \left(1 + \frac{\text{Farming Fortune + Crop Fortune}}{100}\right)</math>

<math>\text{Guaranteed Drops} = \text{Base Crop Drops} \times \left(1 + \left\lfloor\frac{\text{Farming Fortune + Crop Fortune}}{100}\right\rfloor\right)</math>

<math>P(\text{Additional Drop}) = \text{Base Crop Drops} \times \left(\frac{\text{Farming Fortune + Crop Fortune}}{100} \bmod 1 \right)</math>

{{subtext|color=grey|text=NOTE: Just like how all other fortune stats works, every 100 Farming Fortune adds to the crop multiplier. However, for any ff that does not complete another full 100, it instead gives a percentage chance for +1 drops worth of crops 
For Example: 1650 ff = 17 drops worth + 50% chance for it to be 18}}

== How to Increase Your FF ==
By far the best way to see which upgrades are best for you, is to download [[SkyHanni]] and use <code>/ff</code> to open SkyHanni's custom ff menu, from there you can click the paper icon on the left, and select your crop on the right and then just follow what it tells you to get 
{{subtext|color=grey|text=NOTE: SkyHanni does not yet include every way possible to get ff. For example, it does not include anything to do with strength for a [https://hypixelskyblock.minecraft.wiki/w/Mooshroom_Cow_Pet#Stats Legendary Mooshroom Cow] along with a few other FF sources}}

== How to Find Your Real FF ==
The "Farming Fortune" stat in skyblock isn't your real fortune when your farming, you can find your real fortune by either using [[SkyHanni]], or adding your farming fortune and <crop> fortune together. 
'''For example''': if I have {{color|color=#ffaa00|text=1400 Farming Fortune}} and {{color|color=#ffaa00|text=250 Cocoa Beans Fortune}}, my real fortune when farming cocoa is {{color|color=#ffaa00|text=1650 Fortune}}

== Max FF for Each Crop ==

Bonus Pest Chance

Luna: Correcting wiki URLs (Pywikibot)

== Bonus Pest Chance ==
[https://hypixelskyblock.minecraft.wiki/w/Bonus_Pest_Chance Bonus Pest Chance] (or BPC) is a stat that affects the chance to spawn additional pests whenever one would spawn on your Garden while actively farming. It does not affect offline spawns or Pest/Mouse/Vermin Traps.

== Pest Spawning Formula ==
<math>\text{Average Pest Spawns} = 1 + \frac{\text{BPC}}{100}</math>

<math>\text{Guaranteed Pest Spawns} = 1 + \left\lfloor\frac{\text{BPC}}{100}\right\rfloor</math>

<math>P(\text{Additional Pest Spawn}) = \frac{\text{BPC}}{100} \bmod 1</math>

{{subtext|color=grey|text=Just like how Farming Fortune works, every 100 Bonus Pest Chance guarantees an additional pest. Any additional BPC gives a percentage chance for one more pest to spawn. 
For example: 250 BPC = 3 pests + 50% chance of an additional pest.}}

'''Hypixel Wiki Article:''' https://hypixelskyblock.minecraft.wiki/w/Pests

Pests are a type of mob that spawn on the garden that reduce a player's farming fortune as they accumulate. Due to the fortune reduction, and the fact that vacuuming pests requires a player to stop farming while doing so, it's widely accepted that the introduction of pests was primarily done to combat cheaters.

A valid secondary motivation may be that Hypixel intends to make farming a more active skill, as the ability for players to farm while actively doing other things has been criticized by both players and Hypixel Admins.

<blockquote>
The most efficient way to play the game shouldn’t include a boring and daunting task.

The best way to level up Farming shouldn't be to farm <insert best crop> from lvl 10 to 60, without any new interesting mechanics in between.

- Jayavarmen<ref>Jayavarmen, https://hypixel.net/threads/1-0-design-thread-1-skills.4531724/</ref>
</blockquote>

== Bonus Pest Chance ==
Bonus Pest Chance is a stat that increases the amount of pests you spawn at once. Read the page for that [[Bonus Pest Chance|here]].

== Fortune Decrease ==
Having pests spawned on your Garden decreases your farming fortune according to the table below. When fortune is applied to a pest kill, the pest that was just killed does not count towards the fortune decrease. So if you have 4 pests on your garden and kill one, that pest gets subtracted first, leaving your fortune untouched for that kill.

'''You can have one more pest spawned on your garden for every 100 Bonus Pest Chance''' before the fortune decrease starts. For example, at 100 Bonus Pest Chance you can have 4 pests spawned with no decrease in fortune, and the 5th pest will reduce your fortune by 5%, with the next spawns following the order below.

=== Normal Crop Drops Calculation ===
The normal crop drops are calculated with the following formula.

<math>\text{Crops} = 160 \times \left(\text{Base Items} + \frac{\text{Universal Fortune} + \text{Crop Fortune} + \text{Bonus Fortune}}{\text{Fortune Scaling}} \right )</math>

'''Bonus Fortune''' - +100 for [https://hypixelskyblock.minecraft.wiki/w/Beady_Eyes Beady Reforge] and +1-100 for [https://hypixelskyblock.minecraft.wiki/w/Hedgehog_Pet Hedgehog Pet] (depending on its level), for a maximum of 200 total.

=== RNG Drops Calculation ===
This formula applies to all pest drops that have a base drop chance of less than 5%. Pet Luck as shown below is only included for pet drops.

'''Note:''' Slug pests have an equal chance to drop both types of Enchanted Mushroom Block, so this chance should be rolled twice when calculating drops for slugs.

<math>\text{RNG Drop Chance} = \text{Base Drop Chance} \times \left ( 1 + \frac{\text{Universal Fortune} + \text{Crop Fortune} + \text{Bonus Fortune} + \text{Pet Luck}}{600} \right )</math>

You can get the expected crops dropped from RNG for an amount of pests killed by plugging the resulting '''RNG Crop Chance''' into the following calculation. This is a perfect average, given enough pests killed the total drops are expected to equal the result of this, but it won't be perfect on smaller sample sizes.

<math>\text{Crops} = \text{Pests Killed} \times \text{RNG Drop Chance} \times \text{Crops In Item}</math>

'''Crops In Item''' - The amount of crop items used to craft the item that's being dropped. Reference the table above for these numbers.

{{subtext|color=red|text=NOTE: ff for drops is calculated '''after''' killing the pest, meaning there is no ff decrease when killing pests at 4 pests, but there is at 5 pests}}

=== Pest Farming Strategies ===
[[Pests/Strategies]]

== Farming Weight ==
The intention of farming weight is to balance farming weight gain between all crops. Pest drops can't be accounted for at max rates, due to bonus pest chance and a player's current farming fortune both being factors in crop drops.

As a result, the farming weight calculation does its best to subtract crops gained from pests before applying the rest of the calculation. [https://eliteskyblock.com/info#Pests Read more here]

Publisher: '''Elite Farmers'''

Last Updated: December 28, 2025

= ''What is Pest farming?'' =
Pest Farming is a unique and different way of maximizing the crop output you have in Hypixel Skyblock. This involves manipulating the environment to favor the spawning of a particular type of pest, then harvesting dropped resources from them efficiently allowing you to make up to 70m/h. In this guide, you will get to know the basic concepts of Pest Farming; essential aspects will be explained in detail such as:

* '''Selecting the Right Pest''': Learn which pests offer the most lucrative rewards and how their fleeing patterns differ.
* '''Understanding Pest Spawning Mechanics''': Learn how factors like player proximity, environmental conditions, and nearby structures influence pest spawns.
* '''Mouse Traps''': Learn how to use Mouse Traps to gain passive income and have an advantage over others in farming contests.
* '''Building Efficient Pest Farms''': Explore various farm designs, from simple, low-maintenance setups to complex, high-output systems.
* '''Essential Equipment and Tools''': Learn about gear, enchants, and skills that maximize your efficiency in pest farming.
* '''Pest Farming''': Learn actual Pest Farming tips such as pet swapping and optimizing resource drops.

Through mastery of these principles, you can greatly improve the rate of resource collection, thereby unlocking many different and powerful items and upgrades within Hypixel Skyblock.

= ''Selecting the Right Pest'' =
First off, what is a pest? A pest is a small creature represented by a custom player head that spawns exclusively in the Garden in Hypixel Skyblock (except Rats, though they can’t be vacuumed in the hub). There are in total 14 types of pests, each having their own loot table. The Pests, their drops, and chances are as follows:

The Field Mouse also gives 50% more crop drops than normal. It should be noted that each pest has a 10% chance to drop a random bait (Compost, Honey Jar, Dung, Plant Matter, jelly, and Tasty Cheese) which are used to fuel the Sprayonator and [https://hypixelskyblock.minecraft.wiki/w/Mouse_Trap '''Mouse Traps''']. Also if you are lucky you can drop a '''[https://hypixelskyblock.minecraft.wiki/w/Dung_Dye Dung Dye]''' 1/250,000 chance from pests, or 1/50,000 chance from a Field Mouse. When rolling for pest drops, '''[https://hypixelskyblock.minecraft.wiki/w/Farming_Fortune Farming Fortune]''' is included into the general equation rather than magic find. The equation for pest drops are as follows:

<math>Drop Chance = Drop Chance * ( 1 + \left ( \frac{FarmingFortune + CropFortune + BonusFortune}{600} \right )</math>

When calculating pet drops, '''[https://hypixelskyblock.minecraft.wiki/w/Pet_Luck Pet Luck]''' is also added to Farming Fortune and Crop Fortune.

<math>Drop Chance = Drop Chance * ( 1 + \left ( \frac{FarmingFortune + CropFortune + BonusFortune + PetLuck}{600} \right )</math>

Keep in mind that all drops greater than a 5% chance are not affected by farming fortune.

It is recommended to spend your pests at Phillip's shop for 40 pests to get +200 farming fortune for 30 minutes. While pest farming you can make these pests back and even more if you are efficient. The money gained from the extra farming fortune is greater than spending your pests on hedgehogs and Pesterminator 6 books and selling them.

So which pest should you try to farm, it depends. For money, currently and for the foreseeable future, the Bazaar market is leaning towards farming the Beetle Pest for its nether wart and the Pesterminator I books. That said if the price of Pesterminator I ever drops below 210,000 coins on the Bazaar, the Slug pest will be more profitable. For Ironman profiles, you should always farm Slugs for money since they have the best NPC sell price per pest. For crop collection you should always farm the pests with the corresponding drop to the collection or garden milestone you are trying to maximize. In regards to farming exp, Each pest drops a base 1,500 Farming XP, which is then influenced by your '''[https://hypixelskyblock.minecraft.wiki/w/Farming_Wisdom Farming Wisdom]'''.

Pest drops are affected by Farming Fortune, but as shown not all pests are created as equals. Each pest has its own drops to a different scaling factor to Farming Fortune as shown below.

[[File:Pest Chart.png|left|thumb|538x538px]]

To calculate your drops the formula is:

<math>Drops = BaseDrops + \left ( \frac{Farming Fortune + CropFortune}{Crop Scaling Number} \right )</math>

= ''Pest Spawn Mechanics'' =
Starting at Garden Level V, a Pest has a 1/500 (0.2%) chance to spawn whenever a player breaks a crop in [https://hypixelskyblock.minecraft.wiki/w/Garden '''The Garden'''.] Although you unlock pests at garden level 5, some pests such as the Beetle pest can only spawn at higher garden levels. This cool down can be reduced to 1/425 during Autumn by the '''[https://hypixelskyblock.minecraft.wiki/w/Atmospheric_Filter Atmospheric Filter]''' (Dropped from the Mite Pest), and can also be halved by the Sprayonator perk. The Pest spawned is not affected by the crop broken, but specific Pests can become more common via the '''[https://hypixelskyblock.minecraft.wiki/w/Sprayonator Sprayonator]''' or playing Pest Vinyls using the InfiniVacuum™ Hooverius. Note that the Pest vinyls don’t increase the chance of spawning pests, only that they increase the chance that the spawned pest is of your desired type.

The default cooldown between Pest spawns is 5 minutes and it can be modified using '''[https://hypixelskyblock.minecraft.wiki/w/Finnegan Finnegan]''' (Pest Eradicator Perk), '''[https://hypixelskyblock.minecraft.wiki/w/Pest_Vest Pest Vest]''', '''Pesthunter Equipment''', and the '''[https://hypixelskyblock.minecraft.wiki/w/Squeaky_Toy Squeaky Reforge]''' on Equipment. Keep in mind that pest cooldowns are additive, not multiplicative.
{| class="wikitable"
|Finnegan
| -20%

|Pest Vest
| -15%
|-
|Pest Hunter Equipment
| -10% each (-40% cumulative)
|-
|Squeaky (up to 4 times)
| -2.5% each (-10% cumulative)
|}
This means that the minimum achievable pest cooldown using 3/4 Pest Hunter Equipment and a Pest Vest, is approximately 1 minute and 15 seconds during Finnegan, and 2 minutes and 15 seconds when Finnegan is not mayor.

Whenever using the sprayonator, you need to select a bait to attract certain pests. Remember to use the correct bait to farm each pest for maximum efficiency

The only place that Pests may spawn is in the plot the player is farming in, or any directly adjacent plot (except diagonally). By default, only one Pest will spawn at a time, this can be increased with Bonus Pest Chance. Pests can also spawn while the player is outside The Garden, up to one per hour.

In addition to spawning on the plot you are farming at, they will also spawn on the highest point of the farm, this means that if you have a tall and complicated farm, it will be harder to catch them, wasting time

Fireflies and Dragonflies: These two pests are responsible for dropping Sunflowers and Moonflowers. Because of this, they also work in the same way. If you farm in the night, you will only spawn Fireflies, and if you farm in the day, you will only spawn Dragonflies.

[https://hypixelskyblock.minecraft.wiki/w/Bonus_Pest_Chance ൠ '''Bonus Pest Chance'''] is the key strategy for pest farming, it is what allows you to make more than others who farm. There are many ways to get Bonus Pest Chance and the maximum you can currently obtain is 517.5% Bonus Pest Chance. However you only need a minimum of 300 to start, you will want to have at least 300 pest chance so that you spawn 4 pests at a time (1 base spawn + 3 from Bonus Pest Chance). However having more than 4 pests on your garden at once can decrease your farming fortune, so just keep that in mind.
{| class="wikitable"

|}
These percentages can be reduced by having more Bonus Pest Chance, but you will want to have your normal farming gear when vacuuming up the pests for the most drops and drop chance, which will be covered in '''Tools and Equipment'''. The Reason for 4 pests is that when calculating your farming fortune on pest drops, it will minus the total amount of pests in your garden, then calculate the pest drops. Thus it is as though you had no reduction to farming fortune at all.

== Pest Traps ==
Pest Traps are an important part of pest farming as they are the only way to spawn Field Mice. The Vermin Trap is the third tier of the [https://hypixelskyblock.minecraft.wiki/w/Pest_Trap Pest Trap], and it is recommended to use Vermin Traps because they can store four pest, and have a 4x chance to spawn a Field Mouse. This is a passive way to spawn pests as the traps fill up even when you are offline. Pest Traps seam to spawn one pest about every 10 minutes. The only downside to using traps is that they consume a bait for every pest caught, this can be expensive for new players, or annoying to get for Ironman players. The up sides to using traps is that you get extra pests and crop drops without putting in any work, you also spawn Field Mice that you can kill to gain drops and bestiary that increases your farming fortune and bonus pest chance(If you are using a brown bandana). The type of pest that spawn in traps are effected by the bait in the trap, and the vinyl you are playing on your vacuum. Using the correct vinyl paired with using specific bait, and planning a head of time can spawn a lot of specific pests that can give you an advantage in [https://hypixelskyblock.minecraft.wiki/w/Jacob%27s_Farming_Contest Jacobs Contests].

= ''Building the Best Pest Farm'' =
[[File:ZachplaysAN's cane farm.png|thumb|397x397px]]
Although pests won’t spawn slower or faster depending on the crop you farm, the crop you farm can be a hindrance to vacuuming, spawning or finding pests. You will want an optimized farm, meaning as close to 20 blocks per second and you will want a one by one infinite farm, so you don’t have to spray multiple plots with the Sprayonator. However, all melon farms require multiple plots and are the current best crop to farm, so that is one exception. Although there are exceptions, the two best crops for pest farming, and are infinite (at Garden lvl 15) are the melon and the wheat farms. This being said, I do not recommend that you use any mega farms, farms such as the Grooveman 7.0 farm, as they are long, tall, and complicated. With the melon and wheat farms, you can place a layer of glass over the top of the farm so that the pests will always spawn on top as shown by this screenshot of [https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCJPSSQAQ9_iPwpJqnd4WSIw '''ZachplaysAN’s'''] sugarcane farm. These are just examples, but you can add a roof to any farm, just make sure when you build it to leave some space to build the roof because the build height in the garden is very low. Currently the best farm for coins is the melon farm. The reason for this is because farming melons normally makes the most money on average compared to other crops. Pest farming is not any different because you are still farming melons for most of the time. The only down sides to this are that it might be hard to get out of the farm, but you can solve this by using an [https://hypixelskyblock.minecraft.wiki/w/Aspect_Of_The_Void Aspect of the Void], or warping to the infested plot. The second downside to using a melon farm is that you need to spray five plots every 30 minutes instead of one plot. The second option is the wheat farm, this is because you can achieve 20 block per second broken, and it is easily loopable, because of this, you can spawn a few more pests per hour than a melon farm. Over all, if you are going for coins, pest farming on a melon farm is slightly more profitable despite having to spray five plots.

= ''Tools and Equipment'' =
This section will be split into five sections, Armor, Equipment, Pets, Pest tools, and Attribute Shards. Each one of these sections is vital for pest farming with maximum efficiency.

== ''Armor'' ==
To begin, let's talk about armor. Even sense update 0.24, you only need one set of armor, Helianthus. Technically it is better to use two sets of Helianthus armor, one with mossy and one with Mantid; However if you don't plan on farming for 800 hours, it is probably not worth it. The set of Mantid would be used while spawning pests and is a net gain of only 21 bonus pest chance so the difference is minimal. I would only use a second set of Helianthus if you first have the money for it, and plan on pest farming for hundreds of hours. Because this is a beginners guide, I will assume you do not have billions of coins to spend on a second farming set for the rest of this guide. The tow farming sets should be maxed differently which includes the following.

{{subtext|color=gray||text=*Again, you can use two sets of Helianthus armor if you really want to hyper max everything at the expense of your bank. Getting perfect gemstones on the second set is very expensive as you only wear this set for a few seconds at a time, it takes thousands of hours to make back.}}

== ''Equipment'' ==
The next section is the Equipment that you need.

{{subtext|color=gray||text=You may chose to add Recombobulators to your equipment if you have the money and plan on pest farming for a long time. If you are equipment swapping, you can get away with a lower level of green thumb level on the pest equipment if you are low on money.}}

Now the reason that we are using the Pest Vest aside from the Blossom Cloak, Pesthunter’s Cloak, or Zorro Cape, is that the Pest Vest gives two unique bonuses. It provides +10 Bonus Pest Chance and also reduces the spawn cooldown of pests by 15%, shortening our time between pest spawns as opposed to 10% reduction from the Pesthunter’s Cloak.

== '''''Equipment swapping''''' ==
Another Strategy you can use is to have a full Blossom Equipment Set that you can switch too to get more farming fortune when farming during pest cool down and when vacuuming pests. This strategy is optional and can increase your profit, especially if you are just starting. The only downside is it costs more money to get the set up, and it adds an extra step when swapping your armor and pets. If you want to equipment swap while pest farming, here is what you will need:
{| class="wikitable"

|✅
|}
{{subtext|color=gray||text=*You can substitute Blossom equipment for Lotus; however, the difference in ff between pest equipment and Lotus is smaller.}}

== ''Pets'' ==
For Pets you will need the '''[https://hypixelskyblock.minecraft.wiki/w/Mooshroom_Cow_Pet Mooshroom Cow Pet]''' (or Rose Dragon Preferably), [https://hypixelskyblock.minecraft.wiki/w/Mosquito_Pet Mosquito Pet] for the Bonus Pest Chance, and '''[https://hypixelskyblock.minecraft.wiki/w/Hedgehog_Pet Hedgehog Pet]''' (pest damage and Farming Fortune on pests).

Now of course you will want to have your pets as close to or at level 100 to have the best efficiency. With that being said you can and should substitute the Mooshroom Cow Pet with the '''[https://hypixelskyblock.minecraft.wiki/w/Elephant_Pet Elephant Pet]''' if you have less than 1,172 strength since the elephant will provide more farming fortune. If you are farming for money however (opposed to a contest) you should always use a Mooshroom Cow (or Rose Dragon Preferably) even at 0 strength as the bonus mushrooms generated by the “Mushroom Eater” perk will add a boost to your income.

== ''Tools'' ==
Regarding tools, we recommend that you use whatever specialized tool that Anita will sell you for each crop (eg. Melon Dicer for Melons). There used to be an exception in the form of the '''[https://hypixelskyblock.minecraft.wiki/w/Daedalus_Axe Daedelus Axe]''' for farming mushrooms. However with a past update, using the Daedalus Axe will '''NOT''' allow you to break blocks.

You will also need a '''Sprayonator''' and the '''Infinivacuum ™ Hooverius''' to spray for your pest on your farm and the vacuum to play vinyls and suck up pests.

== Accessories ==
[https://hypixelskyblock.minecraft.wiki/w/Pesthunter_Relic Pesthunter Relic] is the only accessory necessary for pest farming; it gives 80 bonus pest chance and is purchasable from Pesthunter Phillip. There are other accessories that buff farming fortune such as the atmospheric filter or the Helianthus Relic.

= ''Attribute Shards'' =
With the addition of update 0.23 The Foraging Update, Hypixel introduced Attribute Shards revamping the attribute system and providing a way to further improve farming. There are many Shards that Improve farming in general but we will only cover the shards that only affect pests and their drops. for all farming related shards visit the [[Farming Attributes]] Wiki.

'''Pest Shard:''' Also known as the Pest Luck Attribute, this is an uncommon shard that requires 64 shards to max. You obtain these by using a pocket black hole or a lasso on any pests in your garden (also vacuum kills while using salts). Pest Luck shards give a +2% -> +20% chance to obtain Rare loot from Pests. This is a must-have shard, as a +20% buff to rare drops, such as polished pumpkins, tightly tied hay bales, and other RNG drops will significantly increase your hourly rates.

'''Praying Mantis Shard:''' This is the Insect Power Shard and is uncommon requiring 64 shards to max. These are acquired by fusing 5 Pest shards and 5 more Pest shards at the Fusion Machine in Galatea. The effect the Insect Power shard gives is +5% -> +50% more damage to pests. This is one of the less useful shards as currently a fully maxed vacuum and hedgehog pet will instantly suck up pests. This can, however, be useful during the years with Mayor Derpy as all mobs including pests have double health.

'''Termite Shard:''' The Infiltration Shard is an uncommon shard needing 64 shards to max. The Infiltration shard is obtained from fusing 5 Praying Mantis Shards and 5 of any Bug Family Shard in the Fusion Machine on Galatea. This Shard is more useful than the last providing +3 -> +30 Farming Fortune if the Garden plot currently has a pest in it. This fortune also applies to each pest when you use your vacuum to suck them up.

'''Lunar Moth Shard:''' The Lunar Power Shard is an epic shard requiring 32 shards to max. Unlike all the previous shards mentioned, this shard is useful for normal farming as well. Lunar Power shards provide +5 -> +50 Farming Fortune during the night. It is obtained by Fusing 5 ladybug shards with 5 of any Rare or higher Bug family shard. Since you will already have your garden set to night as opposed to day for 3X stats on your biohazard armor, this is a great opportunity for more farming fortune.

= Chips =
With the addition of update 0.24, the Greenhouse update, a new system was added to the game. This added "chips" to the game, very similar to attribute shards, chips give permanent buffs to your account. Just like attributes, I will only show you the ones that directly impact pest farming, but keep in mind there are 10 total chips. Each chip can go up to level 20, and are upgraded using a new powder like currency called sowdust. You gain sowdust by simply farming. At certain level intervals, you have to redeem a physical chip item to continue upgrading it. level 1-10 requires one chip, 11-15 requires 4 chips, 16-20 requires 16 more chips (all totaling to 21 chip items per maxed chip).

== Pest Shard Hunting ==
With the addition of update 0.23, some players have experimented with a altered version of pest farming where you prioritize getting pest shards, witch could potentially make more money that traditional pest farming. The basic idea behind this method is to use a [https://hypixelskyblock.minecraft.wiki/w/Lassos lasso] on pests to obtain their shards, witch could sell for more than the drops themselves. There is also another strategy where you use a specifically upgraded vacuum to get pests down to 10% of their max HP. This allows you to be able to use a [https://hypixelskyblock.minecraft.wiki/w/Medium_Pocket_Black_Hole black hole] to receive both their normal drop, and their shards. For both of these methods you will want to max out hunter fortune shards as well was farming related shards. It is also recommended to use salts in order to gain extra shards from time to time. Most people don't pest shard hunt because both of these methods require more time and effort. However, this is especially true for the second one.

'''Strategy One:''' This strategy is simple, and only takes slightly more time and effort than traditional pest farming. Keep in mind that some pests, specifically faster pests can be extremely annoying to '''lasso'''. This strategy is as simple as it sounds, all you need is a normal pest farming set up, as well as a '''lasso''', preferably the highest tier. You also want a [https://hypixelskyblock.minecraft.wiki/w/David%27s_Cloak David's Cloak] with as high hunter fortune as you can get. When your pests spawn, equip your '''David's Cloak''' and rare or higher [https://hypixelskyblock.minecraft.wiki/w/Frog_Pet Frog Pet], The reason for doing this is to increase the amount a shards you receive from pests. Then, you lasso each of the pests instead of using a vacuum. This is the less common of the two strategies as it is highly Bazaar dependent and makes about the same amount of money as traditional pest farming, or even less.

'''Strategy Two:''' This strategy is the more common and complex of the two, and needs a special set up. In addition to a normal pest farming set up, you will need a '''David's Cloak''', a '''Black Hole''', and a specialized vacuum. This strategy relies on the '''black hole''' feature that allows you to receive both the standard drops and the shards from creatures you kill. However, in order to use the '''black hole''', the creature needs to be at max at 10% of its max health (10% of 600HP = 60HP), to do this we can't use a max vacuum. For this to work you need to make sure you have the Praying mantis shard '''TURNED OFF'''. You should use a '''Infinivacuum ™ Hooverius''' with no [https://hypixelskyblock.minecraft.wiki/w/Bookworm%27s_Favorite_Book Bookworm's Favorite Books] and the Beady reforge (for this method you will be using a Hedgehog Pet, instead of a Frog Pet). When you spawn your pests, equip your '''David's Cloak''' and damage the pest once with your vacuum, then use your '''Black Hole''' to suck it up. While the animation is playing, swap to your highest Farming Fortune tool to maximize crop drops. Then repeat with all of the other pests, keep in mind that your Farming Fortune does matter with this strategy. When you are done, you will find that you received both the Pest Shards, and the pest's crop drops. This method might sound perfect, but keep in mind it requires more time, and effort than any other farming strategy; However, it makes a significant amount more than any other method. Some people claim that they make 8-11m more than traditional pest farming, thus making a total of ~65-70m when fully maxed.

= ''Pest Farming'' =
[https://youtu.be/7RUMO7vvMyc Simple Pest farming video demonstration] '''(more efficient video below)'''

The video above was annoying and not loading or being able to be inserted, so you can use this link to see what you are supposed to do. Otherwise here is a summary of what was done in the video:

# Spray your plot with your bait of choice.
# Equip Mooshroom Cow or Elephant pet and start to farm normally
# Once it is getting close to 2 minutes and 15 seconds, Switch to Mosquito pet, and start farming. (and swap to 3/4 pest hunter equipment and pest vest if you are equipment swapping)
# Once the Pests have spawned, type “/setspawn” in the chat (or use a hot key)
# Then switch to Hedgehog pet (and swap to Blossom equipment if you are equipment swapping)
# After vacuuming the pests, type “/warp garden” (or use a hot key)
# Repeat starting on step “2”
[https://youtu.be/i9VyQxWLFDs Advanced Pest Farming Video with key binds and equipment swaps]

A useful tip is to use key binds and '''[https://hypixelskyblock.minecraft.wiki/w/Autopet AutoPet Rules]''' to make the process faster and more efficient. Here are the commands you should choose to key bind. Key bind “/setspawn” and “/warp garden” to return to the farm faster. You may also choose to set key binds to open your wardrobe slot if you are using double Helianthus. The rules you should have in Auto Pet are as follows:
{| class="wikitable"
|If you throw a fishing hook, except if you have Hedgehog or Mushroom Cow equipped.
|Summon Hedgehog
|-
|If you throw a fishing hook, except if you have Mushroom Cow or Mosquito equipped.
|Summon Mooshroom Cow
|-
|If you throw a fishing hook, except if you have Mosquito or Hedgehog equipped.
|Summon Mosquito
|}
These pet rules will rotate though the three pets in the order that you want them too. First farming normally with the cow, then swapping to mosquito to spawn the pest, finally swapping to Hedgehog to kill the pests, and back to cow to repeat. These are some pet rules I have made, but feel free to make your own especially if your setup differs from the one in the guide (Rose Dragon or running double Helianthus).

==== Axed Perk ====
The Axed perk from the [https://hypixelskyblock.minecraft.wiki/w/Essence_Shops#Forest Forest Essence Shop] grants a 2% increase to all stats on axes, including axe tools.

This perk can be purchased from [https://hypixelskyblock.minecraft.wiki/w/Rosemary Rosemary] in Galatea for 10,000 [https://hypixelskyblock.minecraft.wiki/w/Essence#Forest_Essence Forest Essence].

=== Bountiful or Blessed? ===

<big>'''Bountiful''' - </big> Use for profit, you get around {{color|color=#ffaa00|text=~200k-1.4m more coins per hour}} depending on the crop and farming fortune. Bountiful gives .2 coins per crop drop, not blocks broken. Crops with a higher drop rate like melon benefit significantly from bountiful. 
<big>'''Blessed''' - </big> Use for collections/milestones or XP, but it's not significantly faster for either. Blessed is usually only recommended when grinding xp for Farming 40.

=== Lotus Cloak or Zorro's Cape? ===

Zorro's cape is on average {{color|color=#ffaa00|text=+13.33 Farming Fortune}} better than lotus if both are maxed.

When a contest is active, even if you don't participate, maxxed Zorro's cape will be {{color|color=#ffaa00|text=+48 Farming Fortune}} better than maxxed lotus, and outside a contest it is {{color|color=#ffaa00|text=-4 Farming Fortune}} worse than lotus.

You may think that because it's worse outside a contest, you should switch to lotus, but you would have to switch in under '''2.1 seconds!''' which is realistically not happening, so always keep your Zorro's cape active.

===== TL;DR =====
Zorro's cape is better than lotus. Just make sure you have Zorro unlocked before you buy!

Farming XP

Luna: wiki.hypixel.net → hypixelskyblock.minecraft.wiki (Pywikibot)

== Farming Wisdom ==

Farming Wisdom increases the XP gained from crops using the following formula:

<math>\text{XP Gained} = \text{Base Crop XP} \times \left(1 + \frac{\text{Farming Wisdom}}{100}\right)</math> 
{{subtext|color=grey|text=NOTE: If [https://hypixelskyblock.minecraft.wiki/w/Derpy Derpy] is elected mayor, all farming XP is multiplied by 1.5x '''after''' calculating Farming Wisdom.}}

Farming Fortune

2026-04-24T20:03:18Z

Luna: wiki.hypixel.net → hypixelskyblock.minecraft.wiki (Pywikibot)

== Farming Fortune ==
Farming Fortune (or ff) is a stat that affects how many drops you get from crops with the formula similar to the one seen below 

Ever since the Garden Update, Farming Fortune has been disabled on private islands in order to get players to farm on the garden rather than their islands

== Farming Fortune Formula ==
<math>\text{Average Drops} = \text{Base Crop Drops} \times \left(1 + \frac{\text{Farming Fortune + Crop Fortune}}{100}\right)</math>

<math>\text{Guaranteed Drops} = \text{Base Crop Drops} \times \left(1 + \left\lfloor\frac{\text{Farming Fortune + Crop Fortune}}{100}\right\rfloor\right)</math>

<math>P(\text{Additional Drop}) = \text{Base Crop Drops} \times \left(\frac{\text{Farming Fortune + Crop Fortune}}{100} \bmod 1 \right)</math>

{{subtext|color=grey|text=NOTE: Just like how all other fortune stats works, every 100 Farming Fortune adds to the crop multiplier. However, for any ff that does not complete another full 100, it instead gives a percentage chance for +1 drops worth of crops 
For Example: 1650 ff = 17 drops worth + 50% chance for it to be 18}}

== How to Increase Your FF ==
By far the best way to see which upgrades are best for you, is to download [[SkyHanni]] and use <code>/ff</code> to open SkyHanni's custom ff menu, from there you can click the paper icon on the left, and select your crop on the right and then just follow what it tells you to get 
{{subtext|color=grey|text=NOTE: SkyHanni does not yet include every way possible to get ff. For example, it does not include anything to do with strength for a [https://hypixelskyblock.minecraft.wiki/w/Mooshroom_Cow_Pet#Stats Legendary Mooshroom Cow] along with a few other FF sources}}

== How to Find Your Real FF ==
The "Farming Fortune" stat in skyblock isn't your real fortune when your farming, you can find your real fortune by either using [[SkyHanni]], or adding your farming fortune and <crop> fortune together. 
'''For example''': if I have {{color|color=#ffaa00|text=1400 Farming Fortune}} and {{color|color=#ffaa00|text=250 Cocoa Beans Fortune}}, my real fortune when farming cocoa is {{color|color=#ffaa00|text=1650 Fortune}}

== Max FF for Each Crop ==

Fun Fact: Although Max Fortune for mathematical hoes are calculated using a 10 Billion counter hoe, theoretically, you can gain fortune from counter up to 1 Quintillion

Luna: wiki.hypixel.net → hypixelskyblock.minecraft.wiki (Pywikibot)

== Clearing Plots ==
==== Basic Clearing ====

The fastest way to clear plots is to;

# <s>Start by clearing the trees with a [https://hypixelskyblock.minecraft.wiki/w/Treecapitator Treecapitator] or a [https://hypixelskyblock.minecraft.wiki/w/Spruce_Axe Spruce Axe]</s><ref>The [https://hypixelskyblock.minecraft.wiki/w/Sweep Sweep] stat is disabled in the Garden, so using a Treecapitator is no longer an option, as Sweep being disabled will make the process significantly more time-consuming.</ref> Use an Efficiency 5 [https://minecraft.wiki/w/Golden_Shovel/ Golden shovel] and a Efficiency 5 [https://minecraft.wiki/w/Golden_Pickaxe/ Golden pickaxe] to dig the dirt and cobblestone above y=71. 
# Then clear bushes using a [https://hypixelskyblock.minecraft.wiki/w/Garden_Scythe Garden Scythe], you can still do this step if you have [https://hypixelskyblock.minecraft.wiki/w/Sam%27s_Scythe Sam's Scythe] but I would recommend just using step 1 if you can.

==== Clearing to Bedrock ====

{{color|color=red|text=NOTE: If you are going to be making a custom farm design '''DO NOT''' skip this step}} 

To create custom farm designs you will need a plot emptied to bedrock, the fastest way to achieve this is to use [https://minecraft.wiki/w/TNT TNT].



# you can get TNT at [https://hypixelskyblock.minecraft.wiki/w/Mad_Redstone_Engineer the Redstone Engineer] in the basement of the [https://hypixelskyblock.minecraft.wiki/w/Builder%27s_House Builder's house]. 
# paste Super Flat preset 
# place a sufficient amount of TNT above the preset to blow up all of the dirt 
# you can get rid of the rest of the dirt using a shovel

{{color|color=red|text= This will blow up nearby plots as-well, if you want to avoid that, use a [https://hypixelskyblock.minecraft.wiki/w/Builder%27s_Ruler '''Builder's ruler'''] }}

== Basic Information ==

* <big>Farming Direction:</big> You have built a farm in the "wrong" orientation you can still farm the farm. They tell you to build the farm in a certain direction for ease of building but it doesn't affect the actual farming. You can find the right angle by changing your yaw by intervals of 90° until you are facing the right direction.

* <big>"Outdated":</big> If a farm is featured in this list it is still used regularly by elites regardless of the title of the video linked.

* <big>Black cat:</big> The black cat bug was patched if new speeds are required for the farm there will be a note, please refer to the [[Frequently_Asked_Questions#Which_pet_is_best?|faq]] for which pets to use.

* <big>Fermento vs Rancher Boots:</big> Maxed fermento boots offer more farming fortune and money then ranchers boots but dont have the utility of being able to change your speed, learn more [[Armor#Rancher's_Boots_vs._Fermento_Boots|here]].

Bonus Pest Chance

2026-04-24T20:02:46Z

Luna: wiki.hypixel.net → hypixelskyblock.minecraft.wiki (Pywikibot)

== Bonus Pest Chance ==
[https://hypixelskyblock.minecraft.wiki/w/Bonus_Pest_Chance Bonus Pest Chance] (or BPC) is a stat that affects the chance to spawn additional pests whenever one would spawn on your Garden while actively farming. It does not affect offline spawns or Pest/Mouse/Vermin Traps.

== Pest Spawning Formula ==
<math>\text{Average Pest Spawns} = 1 + \frac{\text{BPC}}{100}</math>

<math>\text{Guaranteed Pest Spawns} = 1 + \left\lfloor\frac{\text{BPC}}{100}\right\rfloor</math>

<math>P(\text{Additional Pest Spawn}) = \frac{\text{BPC}}{100} \bmod 1</math>

{{subtext|color=grey|text=Just like how Farming Fortune works, every 100 Bonus Pest Chance guarantees an additional pest. Any additional BPC gives a percentage chance for one more pest to spawn. 
For example: 250 BPC = 3 pests + 50% chance of an additional pest.}}

This results in a total reduction of 55% (making the cooldown 2 min 15 s) outside Finnegan, or 75% (making it 1 min 15 s) during Finnegan.

==== Increasing Spawn Chance ====
* Sprayonator - 1/500 (avg. 25 s at 20 BPS -> 1/250 (avg. 12.5 s at 20 BPS)

=== Why not [insert armor piece]? ===

==== Lantern Helmet ====
Lantern Helmet is not recommended because while it is a negligible increase in Farming Fortune while using an axe early on, you lose extra chance for rare crops (Cropie, Squash, Fermento, and Helianthus) and Bonus Pest Chance. It is also completely outclassed once you get Fermento Helmet with even just Bustling or Mantid reforge, let alone Mossy.

==== Rabbit Armor ====
Rabbit Armor is too expensive for the little benefit it provides during the short time you'd use it before unlocking Melon Armor, and the boots do not have anti-trample.

==== Farmer Boots ====
Farmer Boots should only be crafted as a prerequisite to craft Rancher's Boots, but are not recommended to use due to loss of extra rare crop chance and Bonus Pest Chance. Additionally, they also do not have anti-trample.

==== Rancher's Boots ====
Rancher's Boots should generally only be used if you're not able to unlock the [https://hypixelskyblock.minecraft.wiki/w/Sundial Sundial] yet. Before Helianthus, Rancher's Boots may provide more Farming Fortune than the matching boots for your set, so they may potentially be worth using for contests, but you lose out on extra rare crop chance and Bonus Pest Chance.

==== Biohazard Armor ====
This armor set used to be a must have for pest farming, but it has been nerfed and its Bonus Pest Chance has been incorporated into regular farming armor. While it does provide more Bonus Pest Chance than anything below Fermento Armor, it is generally not worth getting anymore unless your intention is solely to rush bestiary or Pest Shards, as regular farming armor sets provide a better balance of stats, having higher Farming Fortune and giving you the chance for rare crops that are essential to upgrading your armor.

'''Hypixel Wiki Article:''' https://wiki.hypixel.net/Pests

Pests are a type of mob that spawn on the garden that reduce a player's farming fortune as they accumulate. Due to the fortune reduction, and the fact that vacuuming pests requires a player to stop farming while doing so, it's widely accepted that the introduction of pests was primarily done to combat cheaters.

A valid secondary motivation may be that Hypixel intends to make farming a more active skill, as the ability for players to farm while actively doing other things has been criticized by both players and Hypixel Admins.

<blockquote>

== Bonus Pest Chance ==
Bonus Pest Chance is a stat that increases the amount of pests you spawn at once. Read the page for that [[Bonus Pest Chance|here]].

== Fortune Decrease ==
Having pests spawned on your Garden decreases your farming fortune according to the table below. When fortune is applied to a pest kill, the pest that was just killed does not count towards the fortune decrease. So if you have 4 pests on your garden and kill one, that pest gets subtracted first, leaving your fortune untouched for that kill.

'''You can have one more pest spawned on your garden for every 100 Bonus Pest Chance''' before the fortune decrease starts. For example, at 100 Bonus Pest Chance you can have 4 pests spawned with no decrease in fortune, and the 5th pest will reduce your fortune by 5%, with the next spawns following the order below.

=== Normal Crop Drops Calculation ===
The normal crop drops are calculated with the following formula.

<math>\text{Crops} = 160 \times \left(\text{Base Items} + \frac{\text{Universal Fortune} + \text{Crop Fortune} + \text{Bonus Fortune}}{\text{Fortune Scaling}} \right )</math>

'''Bonus Fortune''' - +100 for [https://wiki.hypixel.net/Beady_Eyes Beady Reforge] and +1-100 for [https://wiki.hypixel.net/Hedgehog_Pet Hedgehog Pet] (depending on its level), for a maximum of 200 total.

=== RNG Drops Calculation ===
This formula applies to all pest drops that have a base drop chance of less than 5%. Pet Luck as shown below is only included for pet drops.

'''Note:''' Slug pests have an equal chance to drop both types of Enchanted Mushroom Block, so this chance should be rolled twice when calculating drops for slugs.

<math>\text{RNG Drop Chance} = \text{Base Drop Chance} \times \left ( 1 + \frac{\text{Universal Fortune} + \text{Crop Fortune} + \text{Bonus Fortune} + \text{Pet Luck}}{600} \right )</math>

You can get the expected crops dropped from RNG for an amount of pests killed by plugging the resulting '''RNG Crop Chance''' into the following calculation. This is a perfect average, given enough pests killed the total drops are expected to equal the result of this, but it won't be perfect on smaller sample sizes.

<math>\text{Crops} = \text{Pests Killed} \times \text{RNG Drop Chance} \times \text{Crops In Item}</math>

'''Crops In Item''' - The amount of crop items used to craft the item that's being dropped. Reference the table above for these numbers.

{{subtext|color=red|text=NOTE: ff for drops is calculated '''after''' killing the pest, meaning there is no ff decrease when killing pests at 4 pests, but there is at 5 pests}}

=== Pest Farming Strategies ===
[[Pests/Strategies]]

== Farming Weight ==
The intention of farming weight is to balance farming weight gain between all crops. Pest drops can't be accounted for at max rates, due to bonus pest chance and a player's current farming fortune both being factors in crop drops.

As a result, the farming weight calculation does its best to subtract crops gained from pests before applying the rest of the calculation. [https://eliteskyblock.com/info#Pests Read more here]

=== Normal Crop Drops Calculation ===
The normal crop drops are calculated with the following formula.

<math>\text{Crops} = 160 \times \left(\text{Base Items} + \frac{\text{Universal Fortune} + \text{Crop Fortune} + \text{Bonus Fortune}}{\text{Fortune Scaling}} \right )</math>

'''Bonus Fortune''' - +100 for [https://wiki.hypixel.net/Beady_Eyes Beady Reforge] and +1-100 for [https://wiki.hypixel.net/Hedgehog_Pet Hedgehog Pet] (depending on its level), for a maximum of 200 total.

=== RNG Drops Calculation ===
This formula applies to all pest drops that have a base drop chance of less than 5%. Pet Luck as shown below is only included for pet drops.

'''Note:''' Slug pests have an equal chance to drop both types of Enchanted Mushroom Block, so this chance should be rolled twice when calculating drops for slugs.

<math>\text{RNG Drop Chance} = \text{Base Drop Chance} \times \left ( 1 + \frac{\text{Universal Fortune} + \text{Crop Fortune} + \text{Bonus Fortune} + \text{Pet Luck}}{600} \right )</math>

You can get the expected crops dropped from RNG for an amount of pests killed by plugging the resulting '''RNG Crop Chance''' into the following calculation. This is a perfect average, given enough pests killed the total drops are expected to equal the result of this, but it won't be perfect on smaller sample sizes.

<math>\text{Crops} = \text{Pests Killed} \times \text{RNG Drop Chance} \times \text{Crops In Item}</math>

'''Crops In Item''' - The amount of crop items used to craft the item that's being dropped. Reference the table above for these numbers.

{{subtext|color=red|text=NOTE: ff for drops is calculated '''after''' killing the pest, meaning there is no ff decrease when killing pests at 4 pests, but there is at 5 pests}}

=== Pest Farming Strategies ===
[[Pests/Strategies]]

== Farming Weight ==
The intention of farming weight is to balance farming weight gain between all crops. Pest drops can't be accounted for at max rates, due to bonus pest chance and a player's current farming fortune both being factors in crop drops.

As a result, the farming weight calculation does its best to subtract crops gained from pests before applying the rest of the calculation. [https://eliteskyblock.com/info#Pests Read more here]

PSTF101: Intro to Pest Farming

Publisher: '''Elite Farmers'''

Last Updated: December 28, 2025

= ''What is Pest farming?'' =
Pest Farming is a unique and different way of maximizing the crop output you have in Hypixel Skyblock. This involves manipulating the environment to favor the spawning of a particular type of pest, then harvesting dropped resources from them efficiently allowing you to make up to 70m/h. In this guide, you will get to know the basic concepts of Pest Farming; essential aspects will be explained in detail such as:

* '''Selecting the Right Pest''': Learn which pests offer the most lucrative rewards and how their fleeing patterns differ.
* '''Understanding Pest Spawning Mechanics''': Learn how factors like player proximity, environmental conditions, and nearby structures influence pest spawns.
* '''Mouse Traps''': Learn how to use Mouse Traps to gain passive income and have an advantage over others in farming contests.
* '''Building Efficient Pest Farms''': Explore various farm designs, from simple, low-maintenance setups to complex, high-output systems.
* '''Essential Equipment and Tools''': Learn about gear, enchants, and skills that maximize your efficiency in pest farming.
* '''Pest Farming''': Learn actual Pest Farming tips such as pet swapping and optimizing resource drops.

Through mastery of these principles, you can greatly improve the rate of resource collection, thereby unlocking many different and powerful items and upgrades within Hypixel Skyblock.

= ''Selecting the Right Pest'' =
First off, what is a pest? A pest is a small creature represented by a custom player head that spawns exclusively in the Garden in Hypixel Skyblock (except Rats, though they can’t be vacuumed in the hub). There are in total 14 types of pests, each having their own loot table. The Pests, their drops, and chances are as follows:

== ''Pests'' ==

|}
The Field Mouse also gives 50% more crop drops than normal. It should be noted that each pest has a 10% chance to drop a random bait (Compost, Honey Jar, Dung, Plant Matter, jelly, and Tasty Cheese) which are used to fuel the Sprayonator and [https://wiki.hypixel.net/Mouse_Trap '''Mouse Traps''']. Also if you are lucky you can drop a '''[https://hypixelskyblock.minecraft.wiki/w/Dung_Dye Dung Dye]''' 1/250,000 chance from pests, or 1/50,000 chance from a Field Mouse. When rolling for pest drops, '''[https://wiki.hypixel.net/Farming_Fortune Farming Fortune]''' is included into the general equation rather than magic find. The equation for pest drops are as follows:

<math>Drop Chance = Drop Chance * ( 1 + \left ( \frac{FarmingFortune + CropFortune + BonusFortune}{600} \right )</math>

When calculating pet drops, '''[https://wiki.hypixel.net/Pet_Luck Pet Luck]''' is also added to Farming Fortune and Crop Fortune.

<math>Drop Chance = Drop Chance * ( 1 + \left ( \frac{FarmingFortune + CropFortune + BonusFortune + PetLuck}{600} \right )</math>

Keep in mind that all drops greater than a 5% chance are not affected by farming fortune.

It is recommended to spend your pests at Phillip's shop for 40 pests to get +200 farming fortune for 30 minutes. While pest farming you can make these pests back and even more if you are efficient. The money gained from the extra farming fortune is greater than spending your pests on hedgehogs and Pesterminator 6 books and selling them.

So which pest should you try to farm, it depends. For money, currently and for the foreseeable future, the Bazaar market is leaning towards farming the Beetle Pest for its nether wart and the Pesterminator I books. That said if the price of Pesterminator I ever drops below 210,000 coins on the Bazaar, the Slug pest will be more profitable. For Ironman profiles, you should always farm Slugs for money since they have the best NPC sell price per pest. For crop collection you should always farm the pests with the corresponding drop to the collection or garden milestone you are trying to maximize. In regards to farming exp, Each pest drops a base 1,500 Farming XP, which is then influenced by your '''[https://wiki.hypixel.net/Farming_Wisdom Farming Wisdom]'''.

Pest drops are affected by Farming Fortune, but as shown not all pests are created as equals. Each pest has its own drops to a different scaling factor to Farming Fortune as shown below.

For example, at 1750 farming fortune, a rat would drop 51 enchanted pumpkins while an earthworm would drop 255 enchanted melons.
[[File:Pest Chart.png|left|thumb|538x538px]]

To calculate your drops the formula is:

<math>Drops = BaseDrops + \left ( \frac{Farming Fortune + CropFortune}{Crop Scaling Number} \right )</math>

= ''Pest Spawn Mechanics'' =
Starting at Garden Level V, a Pest has a 1/500 (0.2%) chance to spawn whenever a player breaks a crop in [https://wiki.hypixel.net/Garden '''The Garden'''.] Although you unlock pests at garden level 5, some pests such as the Beetle pest can only spawn at higher garden levels. This cool down can be reduced to 1/425 during Autumn by the '''[https://wiki.hypixel.net/Atmospheric_Filter Atmospheric Filter]''' (Dropped from the Mite Pest), and can also be halved by the Sprayonator perk. The Pest spawned is not affected by the crop broken, but specific Pests can become more common via the '''[https://wiki.hypixel.net/Sprayonator Sprayonator]''' or playing Pest Vinyls using the InfiniVacuum™ Hooverius. Note that the Pest vinyls don’t increase the chance of spawning pests, only that they increase the chance that the spawned pest is of your desired type.

The default cooldown between Pest spawns is 5 minutes and it can be modified using '''[https://hypixelskyblock.minecraft.wiki/w/Finnegan Finnegan]''' (Pest Eradicator Perk), '''[https://hypixelskyblock.minecraft.wiki/w/Pest_Vest Pest Vest]''', '''Pesthunter Equipment''', and the '''[https://hypixelskyblock.minecraft.wiki/w/Squeaky_Toy Squeaky Reforge]''' on Equipment. Keep in mind that pest cooldowns are additive, not multiplicative.
{| class="wikitable"
|Finnegan
| -20%
|-
|Pest Vest
| -15%
|-
|Pest Hunter Equipment
| -10% each (-40% cumulative)
|-
|Squeaky (up to 4 times)
| -2.5% each (-10% cumulative)
|}
This means that the minimum achievable pest cooldown using 3/4 Pest Hunter Equipment and a Pest Vest, is approximately 1 minute and 15 seconds during Finnegan, and 2 minutes and 15 seconds when Finnegan is not mayor.

Whenever using the sprayonator, you need to select a bait to attract certain pests. Remember to use the correct bait to farm each pest for maximum efficiency

|Compost

|-
|Fly, Beetle

|Slug, Locust
|Rat, Mite
|Mosquito, Earthworm
|Firefly, Dragonfly, Praying Mantis
|}
The only place that Pests may spawn is in the plot the player is farming in, or any directly adjacent plot (except diagonally). By default, only one Pest will spawn at a time, this can be increased with Bonus Pest Chance. Pests can also spawn while the player is outside The Garden, up to one per hour.

In addition to spawning on the plot you are farming at, they will also spawn on the highest point of the farm, this means that if you have a tall and complicated farm, it will be harder to catch them, wasting time

Fireflies and Dragonflies: These two pests are responsible for dropping Sunflowers and Moonflowers. Because of this, they also work in the same way. If you farm in the night, you will only spawn Fireflies, and if you farm in the day, you will only spawn Dragonflies.

[https://hypixelskyblock.minecraft.wiki/w/Bonus_Pest_Chance ൠ '''Bonus Pest Chance'''] is the key strategy for pest farming, it is what allows you to make more than others who farm. There are many ways to get Bonus Pest Chance and the maximum you can currently obtain is 517.5% Bonus Pest Chance. However you only need a minimum of 300 to start, you will want to have at least 300 pest chance so that you spawn 4 pests at a time (1 base spawn + 3 from Bonus Pest Chance). However having more than 4 pests on your garden at once can decrease your farming fortune, so just keep that in mind.
{| class="wikitable"
|Pests in Garden
|Farming Fortune decrease

|0-3

|6
|<nowiki>-30%</nowiki>
|-
|7
|<nowiki>-50%</nowiki>
|-
|8 (maximum)
|<nowiki>-75%</nowiki>
|}
These percentages can be reduced by having more Bonus Pest Chance, but you will want to have your normal farming gear when vacuuming up the pests for the most drops and drop chance, which will be covered in '''Tools and Equipment'''. The Reason for 4 pests is that when calculating your farming fortune on pest drops, it will minus the total amount of pests in your garden, then calculate the pest drops. Thus it is as though you had no reduction to farming fortune at all.

== Pest Traps ==
Pest Traps are an important part of pest farming as they are the only way to spawn Field Mice. The Vermin Trap is the third tier of the [https://wiki.hypixel.net/Pest_Trap Pest Trap], and it is recommended to use Vermin Traps because they can store four pest, and have a 4x chance to spawn a Field Mouse. This is a passive way to spawn pests as the traps fill up even when you are offline. Pest Traps seam to spawn one pest about every 10 minutes. The only downside to using traps is that they consume a bait for every pest caught, this can be expensive for new players, or annoying to get for Ironman players. The up sides to using traps is that you get extra pests and crop drops without putting in any work, you also spawn Field Mice that you can kill to gain drops and bestiary that increases your farming fortune and bonus pest chance(If you are using a brown bandana). The type of pest that spawn in traps are effected by the bait in the trap, and the vinyl you are playing on your vacuum. Using the correct vinyl paired with using specific bait, and planning a head of time can spawn a lot of specific pests that can give you an advantage in [https://wiki.hypixel.net/Jacob%27s_Farming_Contest Jacobs Contests].

= ''Building the Best Pest Farm'' =
[[File:ZachplaysAN's cane farm.png|thumb|397x397px]]
Although pests won’t spawn slower or faster depending on the crop you farm, the crop you farm can be a hindrance to vacuuming, spawning or finding pests. You will want an optimized farm, meaning as close to 20 blocks per second and you will want a one by one infinite farm, so you don’t have to spray multiple plots with the Sprayonator. However, all melon farms require multiple plots and are the current best crop to farm, so that is one exception. Although there are exceptions, the two best crops for pest farming, and are infinite (at Garden lvl 15) are the melon and the wheat farms. This being said, I do not recommend that you use any mega farms, farms such as the Grooveman 7.0 farm, as they are long, tall, and complicated. With the melon and wheat farms, you can place a layer of glass over the top of the farm so that the pests will always spawn on top as shown by this screenshot of [https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCJPSSQAQ9_iPwpJqnd4WSIw '''ZachplaysAN’s'''] sugarcane farm. These are just examples, but you can add a roof to any farm, just make sure when you build it to leave some space to build the roof because the build height in the garden is very low. Currently the best farm for coins is the melon farm. The reason for this is because farming melons normally makes the most money on average compared to other crops. Pest farming is not any different because you are still farming melons for most of the time. The only down sides to this are that it might be hard to get out of the farm, but you can solve this by using an [https://wiki.hypixel.net/Aspect_Of_The_Void Aspect of the Void], or warping to the infested plot. The second downside to using a melon farm is that you need to spray five plots every 30 minutes instead of one plot. The second option is the wheat farm, this is because you can achieve 20 block per second broken, and it is easily loopable, because of this, you can spawn a few more pests per hour than a melon farm. Over all, if you are going for coins, pest farming on a melon farm is slightly more profitable despite having to spray five plots.

= ''Tools and Equipment'' =
This section will be split into five sections, Armor, Equipment, Pets, Pest tools, and Attribute Shards. Each one of these sections is vital for pest farming with maximum efficiency.

== ''Armor'' ==
To begin, let's talk about armor. Even sense update 0.24, you only need one set of armor, Helianthus. Technically it is better to use two sets of Helianthus armor, one with mossy and one with Mantid; However if you don't plan on farming for 800 hours, it is probably not worth it. The set of Mantid would be used while spawning pests and is a net gain of only 21 bonus pest chance so the difference is minimal. I would only use a second set of Helianthus if you first have the money for it, and plan on pest farming for hundreds of hours. Because this is a beginners guide, I will assume you do not have billions of coins to spend on a second farming set for the rest of this guide. The tow farming sets should be maxed differently which includes the following.
{| class="wikitable"

{{subtext|color=gray||text=*Again, you can use two sets of Helianthus armor if you really want to hyper max everything at the expense of your bank. Getting perfect gemstones on the second set is very expensive as you only wear this set for a few seconds at a time, it takes thousands of hours to make back.}}

== ''Equipment'' ==
The next section is the Equipment that you need.
{| class="wikitable"

{{subtext|color=gray||text=You may chose to add Recombobulators to your equipment if you have the money and plan on pest farming for a long time. If you are equipment swapping, you can get away with a lower level of green thumb level on the pest equipment if you are low on money.}}

Now the reason that we are using the Pest Vest aside from the Blossom Cloak, Pesthunter’s Cloak, or Zorro Cape, is that the Pest Vest gives two unique bonuses. It provides +10 Bonus Pest Chance and also reduces the spawn cooldown of pests by 15%, shortening our time between pest spawns as opposed to 10% reduction from the Pesthunter’s Cloak.

== '''''Equipment swapping''''' ==
Another Strategy you can use is to have a full Blossom Equipment Set that you can switch too to get more farming fortune when farming during pest cool down and when vacuuming pests. This strategy is optional and can increase your profit, especially if you are just starting. The only downside is it costs more money to get the set up, and it adds an extra step when swapping your armor and pets. If you want to equipment swap while pest farming, here is what you will need:

|}
{{subtext|color=gray||text=*You can substitute Blossom equipment for Lotus; however, the difference in ff between pest equipment and Lotus is smaller.}}

== ''Pets'' ==
For Pets you will need the '''[https://wiki.hypixel.net/Mooshroom_Cow_Pet Mooshroom Cow Pet]''' (or Rose Dragon Preferably), [https://wiki.hypixel.net/Mosquito_Pet Mosquito Pet] for the Bonus Pest Chance, and '''[https://wiki.hypixel.net/Hedgehog_Pet Hedgehog Pet]''' (pest damage and Farming Fortune on pests).

Now of course you will want to have your pets as close to or at level 100 to have the best efficiency. With that being said you can and should substitute the Mooshroom Cow Pet with the '''[https://wiki.hypixel.net/Elephant_Pet Elephant Pet]''' if you have less than 1,172 strength since the elephant will provide more farming fortune. If you are farming for money however (opposed to a contest) you should always use a Mooshroom Cow (or Rose Dragon Preferably) even at 0 strength as the bonus mushrooms generated by the “Mushroom Eater” perk will add a boost to your income.

== ''Tools'' ==
Regarding tools, we recommend that you use whatever specialized tool that Anita will sell you for each crop (eg. Melon Dicer for Melons). There used to be an exception in the form of the '''[https://hypixelskyblock.minecraft.wiki/w/Daedalus_Axe Daedelus Axe]''' for farming mushrooms. However with a past update, using the Daedalus Axe will '''NOT''' allow you to break blocks.

You will also need a '''Sprayonator''' and the '''Infinivacuum ™ Hooverius''' to spray for your pest on your farm and the vacuum to play vinyls and suck up pests.

== Accessories ==
[https://hypixelskyblock.minecraft.wiki/w/Pesthunter_Relic Pesthunter Relic] is the only accessory necessary for pest farming; it gives 80 bonus pest chance and is purchasable from Pesthunter Phillip. There are other accessories that buff farming fortune such as the atmospheric filter or the Helianthus Relic.

= ''Attribute Shards'' =
With the addition of update 0.23 The Foraging Update, Hypixel introduced Attribute Shards revamping the attribute system and providing a way to further improve farming. There are many Shards that Improve farming in general but we will only cover the shards that only affect pests and their drops. for all farming related shards visit the [[Farming Attributes]] Wiki.

'''Pest Shard:''' Also known as the Pest Luck Attribute, this is an uncommon shard that requires 64 shards to max. You obtain these by using a pocket black hole or a lasso on any pests in your garden (also vacuum kills while using salts). Pest Luck shards give a +2% -> +20% chance to obtain Rare loot from Pests. This is a must-have shard, as a +20% buff to rare drops, such as polished pumpkins, tightly tied hay bales, and other RNG drops will significantly increase your hourly rates.

'''Praying Mantis Shard:''' This is the Insect Power Shard and is uncommon requiring 64 shards to max. These are acquired by fusing 5 Pest shards and 5 more Pest shards at the Fusion Machine in Galatea. The effect the Insect Power shard gives is +5% -> +50% more damage to pests. This is one of the less useful shards as currently a fully maxed vacuum and hedgehog pet will instantly suck up pests. This can, however, be useful during the years with Mayor Derpy as all mobs including pests have double health.

'''Termite Shard:''' The Infiltration Shard is an uncommon shard needing 64 shards to max. The Infiltration shard is obtained from fusing 5 Praying Mantis Shards and 5 of any Bug Family Shard in the Fusion Machine on Galatea. This Shard is more useful than the last providing +3 -> +30 Farming Fortune if the Garden plot currently has a pest in it. This fortune also applies to each pest when you use your vacuum to suck them up.

'''Lunar Moth Shard:''' The Lunar Power Shard is an epic shard requiring 32 shards to max. Unlike all the previous shards mentioned, this shard is useful for normal farming as well. Lunar Power shards provide +5 -> +50 Farming Fortune during the night. It is obtained by Fusing 5 ladybug shards with 5 of any Rare or higher Bug family shard. Since you will already have your garden set to night as opposed to day for 3X stats on your biohazard armor, this is a great opportunity for more farming fortune.

= Chips =
With the addition of update 0.24, the Greenhouse update, a new system was added to the game. This added "chips" to the game, very similar to attribute shards, chips give permanent buffs to your account. Just like attributes, I will only show you the ones that directly impact pest farming, but keep in mind there are 10 total chips. Each chip can go up to level 20, and are upgraded using a new powder like currency called sowdust. You gain sowdust by simply farming. At certain level intervals, you have to redeem a physical chip item to continue upgrading it. level 1-10 requires one chip, 11-15 requires 4 chips, 16-20 requires 16 more chips (all totaling to 21 chip items per maxed chip).

== Pest Shard Hunting ==
With the addition of update 0.23, some players have experimented with a altered version of pest farming where you prioritize getting pest shards, witch could potentially make more money that traditional pest farming. The basic idea behind this method is to use a [https://hypixelskyblock.minecraft.wiki/w/Lassos lasso] on pests to obtain their shards, witch could sell for more than the drops themselves. There is also another strategy where you use a specifically upgraded vacuum to get pests down to 10% of their max HP. This allows you to be able to use a [https://wiki.hypixel.net/Medium_Pocket_Black_Hole black hole] to receive both their normal drop, and their shards. For both of these methods you will want to max out hunter fortune shards as well was farming related shards. It is also recommended to use salts in order to gain extra shards from time to time. Most people don't pest shard hunt because both of these methods require more time and effort. However, this is especially true for the second one.

'''Strategy One:''' This strategy is simple, and only takes slightly more time and effort than traditional pest farming. Keep in mind that some pests, specifically faster pests can be extremely annoying to '''lasso'''. This strategy is as simple as it sounds, all you need is a normal pest farming set up, as well as a '''lasso''', preferably the highest tier. You also want a [https://wiki.hypixel.net/David%27s_Cloak David's Cloak] with as high hunter fortune as you can get. When your pests spawn, equip your '''David's Cloak''' and rare or higher [https://wiki.hypixel.net/Frog_Pet Frog Pet], The reason for doing this is to increase the amount a shards you receive from pests. Then, you lasso each of the pests instead of using a vacuum. This is the less common of the two strategies as it is highly Bazaar dependent and makes about the same amount of money as traditional pest farming, or even less.

'''Strategy Two:''' This strategy is the more common and complex of the two, and needs a special set up. In addition to a normal pest farming set up, you will need a '''David's Cloak''', a '''Black Hole''', and a specialized vacuum. This strategy relies on the '''black hole''' feature that allows you to receive both the standard drops and the shards from creatures you kill. However, in order to use the '''black hole''', the creature needs to be at max at 10% of its max health (10% of 600HP = 60HP), to do this we can't use a max vacuum. For this to work you need to make sure you have the Praying mantis shard '''TURNED OFF'''. You should use a '''Infinivacuum ™ Hooverius''' with no [https://wiki.hypixel.net/Bookworm%27s_Favorite_Book Bookworm's Favorite Books] and the Beady reforge (for this method you will be using a Hedgehog Pet, instead of a Frog Pet). When you spawn your pests, equip your '''David's Cloak''' and damage the pest once with your vacuum, then use your '''Black Hole''' to suck it up. While the animation is playing, swap to your highest Farming Fortune tool to maximize crop drops. Then repeat with all of the other pests, keep in mind that your Farming Fortune does matter with this strategy. When you are done, you will find that you received both the Pest Shards, and the pest's crop drops. This method might sound perfect, but keep in mind it requires more time, and effort than any other farming strategy; However, it makes a significant amount more than any other method. Some people claim that they make 8-11m more than traditional pest farming, thus making a total of ~65-70m when fully maxed.

[https://youtu.be/7RUMO7vvMyc Simple Pest farming video demonstration] '''(more efficient video below)'''

The video above was annoying and not loading or being able to be inserted, so you can use this link to see what you are supposed to do. Otherwise here is a summary of what was done in the video:

# Spray your plot with your bait of choice.
# Equip Mooshroom Cow or Elephant pet and start to farm normally
# Once it is getting close to 2 minutes and 15 seconds, Switch to Mosquito pet, and start farming. (and swap to 3/4 pest hunter equipment and pest vest if you are equipment swapping)
# Once the Pests have spawned, type “/setspawn” in the chat (or use a hot key)
# Then switch to Hedgehog pet (and swap to Blossom equipment if you are equipment swapping)
# After vacuuming the pests, type “/warp garden” (or use a hot key)
# Repeat starting on step “2”
[https://youtu.be/i9VyQxWLFDs Advanced Pest Farming Video with key binds and equipment swaps]

A useful tip is to use key binds and '''[https://wiki.hypixel.net/Autopet AutoPet Rules]''' to make the process faster and more efficient. Here are the commands you should choose to key bind. Key bind “/setspawn” and “/warp garden” to return to the farm faster. You may also choose to set key binds to open your wardrobe slot if you are using double Helianthus. The rules you should have in Auto Pet are as follows:
{| class="wikitable"
|If you throw a fishing hook, except if you have Hedgehog or Mushroom Cow equipped.
|Summon Hedgehog
|-
|If you throw a fishing hook, except if you have Mushroom Cow or Mosquito equipped.
|Summon Mooshroom Cow
|-
|If you throw a fishing hook, except if you have Mosquito or Hedgehog equipped.
|Summon Mosquito
|}
These pet rules will rotate though the three pets in the order that you want them too. First farming normally with the cow, then swapping to mosquito to spawn the pest, finally swapping to Hedgehog to kill the pests, and back to cow to repeat. These are some pet rules I have made, but feel free to make your own especially if your setup differs from the one in the guide (Rose Dragon or running double Helianthus).

=== Why not [insert armor piece]? ===

==== Lantern Helmet ====
Lantern Helmet is not recommended because while it is a negligible increase in Farming Fortune while using an axe early on, you lose extra chance for rare crops (Cropie, Squash, Fermento, and Helianthus) and Bonus Pest Chance. It is also completely outclassed once you get Fermento Helmet with even just Bustling or Mantid reforge, let alone Mossy.

==== Rabbit Armor ====
Rabbit Armor is too expensive for the little benefit it provides during the short time you'd use it before unlocking Melon Armor, and the boots do not have anti-trample.

==== Farmer Boots ====
Farmer Boots should only be crafted as a prerequisite to craft Rancher's Boots, but are not recommended to use due to loss of extra rare crop chance and Bonus Pest Chance. Additionally, they also do not have anti-trample.

==== Rancher's Boots ====
Rancher's Boots should generally only be used if you're not able to unlock the [https://hypixelskyblock.minecraft.wiki/w/Sundial Sundial] yet. Before Helianthus, Rancher's Boots may provide more Farming Fortune than the matching boots for your set, so they may potentially be worth using for contests, but you lose out on extra rare crop chance and Bonus Pest Chance.

==== Biohazard Armor ====
This armor set used to be a must have for pest farming, but it has been nerfed and its Bonus Pest Chance has been incorporated into regular farming armor. While it does provide more Bonus Pest Chance than anything below Fermento Armor, it is generally not worth getting anymore unless your intention is solely to rush bestiary or Pest Shards, as regular farming armor sets provide a better balance of stats, having higher Farming Fortune and giving you the chance for rare crops that are essential to upgrading your armor.

PSTF101: Intro to Pest Farming

Publisher: '''Elite Farmers'''

Last Updated: December 28, 2025

= ''What is Pest farming?'' =
Pest Farming is a unique and different way of maximizing the crop output you have in Hypixel Skyblock. This involves manipulating the environment to favor the spawning of a particular type of pest, then harvesting dropped resources from them efficiently allowing you to make up to 70m/h. In this guide, you will get to know the basic concepts of Pest Farming; essential aspects will be explained in detail such as:

* '''Selecting the Right Pest''': Learn which pests offer the most lucrative rewards and how their fleeing patterns differ.
* '''Understanding Pest Spawning Mechanics''': Learn how factors like player proximity, environmental conditions, and nearby structures influence pest spawns.
* '''Mouse Traps''': Learn how to use Mouse Traps to gain passive income and have an advantage over others in farming contests.
* '''Building Efficient Pest Farms''': Explore various farm designs, from simple, low-maintenance setups to complex, high-output systems.
* '''Essential Equipment and Tools''': Learn about gear, enchants, and skills that maximize your efficiency in pest farming.
* '''Pest Farming''': Learn actual Pest Farming tips such as pet swapping and optimizing resource drops.

Through mastery of these principles, you can greatly improve the rate of resource collection, thereby unlocking many different and powerful items and upgrades within Hypixel Skyblock.

= ''Selecting the Right Pest'' =
First off, what is a pest? A pest is a small creature represented by a custom player head that spawns exclusively in the Garden in Hypixel Skyblock (except Rats, though they can’t be vacuumed in the hub). There are in total 14 types of pests, each having their own loot table. The Pests, their drops, and chances are as follows:

The Field Mouse also gives 50% more crop drops than normal. It should be noted that each pest has a 10% chance to drop a random bait (Compost, Honey Jar, Dung, Plant Matter, jelly, and Tasty Cheese) which are used to fuel the Sprayonator and [https://wiki.hypixel.net/Mouse_Trap '''Mouse Traps''']. Also if you are lucky you can drop a '''[https://hypixelskyblock.minecraft.wiki/wiki/Dung_Dye Dung Dye]''' 1/250,000 chance from pests, or 1/50,000 chance from a Field Mouse. When rolling for pest drops, '''[https://wiki.hypixel.net/Farming_Fortune Farming Fortune]''' is included into the general equation rather than magic find. The equation for pest drops are as follows:

<math>Drop Chance = Drop Chance * ( 1 + \left ( \frac{FarmingFortune + CropFortune + BonusFortune}{600} \right )</math>

When calculating pet drops, '''[https://wiki.hypixel.net/Pet_Luck Pet Luck]''' is also added to Farming Fortune and Crop Fortune.

<math>Drop Chance = Drop Chance * ( 1 + \left ( \frac{FarmingFortune + CropFortune + BonusFortune + PetLuck}{600} \right )</math>

Keep in mind that all drops greater than a 5% chance are not affected by farming fortune.

It is recommended to spend your pests at Phillip's shop for 40 pests to get +200 farming fortune for 30 minutes. While pest farming you can make these pests back and even more if you are efficient. The money gained from the extra farming fortune is greater than spending your pests on hedgehogs and Pesterminator 6 books and selling them.

So which pest should you try to farm, it depends. For money, currently and for the foreseeable future, the Bazaar market is leaning towards farming the Beetle Pest for its nether wart and the Pesterminator I books. That said if the price of Pesterminator I ever drops below 210,000 coins on the Bazaar, the Slug pest will be more profitable. For Ironman profiles, you should always farm Slugs for money since they have the best NPC sell price per pest. For crop collection you should always farm the pests with the corresponding drop to the collection or garden milestone you are trying to maximize. In regards to farming exp, Each pest drops a base 1,500 Farming XP, which is then influenced by your '''[https://wiki.hypixel.net/Farming_Wisdom Farming Wisdom]'''.

Pest drops are affected by Farming Fortune, but as shown not all pests are created as equals. Each pest has its own drops to a different scaling factor to Farming Fortune as shown below.

To calculate your drops the formula is:

<math>Drops = BaseDrops + \left ( \frac{Farming Fortune + CropFortune}{Crop Scaling Number} \right )</math>

= ''Pest Spawn Mechanics'' =
Starting at Garden Level V, a Pest has a 1/500 (0.2%) chance to spawn whenever a player breaks a crop in [https://wiki.hypixel.net/Garden '''The Garden'''.] Although you unlock pests at garden level 5, some pests such as the Beetle pest can only spawn at higher garden levels. This cool down can be reduced to 1/425 during Autumn by the '''[https://wiki.hypixel.net/Atmospheric_Filter Atmospheric Filter]''' (Dropped from the Mite Pest), and can also be halved by the Sprayonator perk. The Pest spawned is not affected by the crop broken, but specific Pests can become more common via the '''[https://wiki.hypixel.net/Sprayonator Sprayonator]''' or playing Pest Vinyls using the InfiniVacuum™ Hooverius. Note that the Pest vinyls don’t increase the chance of spawning pests, only that they increase the chance that the spawned pest is of your desired type.

The default cooldown between Pest spawns is 5 minutes and it can be modified using '''[https://hypixelskyblock.minecraft.wiki/wiki/Finnegan Finnegan]''' (Pest Eradicator Perk), '''[https://hypixelskyblock.minecraft.wiki/wiki/Pest_Vest Pest Vest]''', '''Pesthunter Equipment''', and the '''[https://hypixelskyblock.minecraft.wiki/wiki/Squeaky_Toy Squeaky Reforge]''' on Equipment. Keep in mind that pest cooldowns are additive, not multiplicative.
{| class="wikitable"
|Finnegan
| -20%
|-
|Pest Vest
| -15%
|-
|Pest Hunter Equipment
| -10% each (-40% cumulative)
|-
|Squeaky (up to 4 times)
| -2.5% each (-10% cumulative)
|}
This means that the minimum achievable pest cooldown using 3/4 Pest Hunter Equipment and a Pest Vest, is approximately 1 minute and 15 seconds during Finnegan, and 2 minutes and 15 seconds when Finnegan is not mayor.

Whenever using the sprayonator, you need to select a bait to attract certain pests. Remember to use the correct bait to farm each pest for maximum efficiency
{| class="wikitable"

|}
The only place that Pests may spawn is in the plot the player is farming in, or any directly adjacent plot (except diagonally). By default, only one Pest will spawn at a time, this can be increased with Bonus Pest Chance. Pests can also spawn while the player is outside The Garden, up to one per hour.

In addition to spawning on the plot you are farming at, they will also spawn on the highest point of the farm, this means that if you have a tall and complicated farm, it will be harder to catch them, wasting time

Fireflies and Dragonflies: These two pests are responsible for dropping Sunflowers and Moonflowers. Because of this, they also work in the same way. If you farm in the night, you will only spawn Fireflies, and if you farm in the day, you will only spawn Dragonflies.

[https://hypixelskyblock.minecraft.wiki/wiki/Bonus_Pest_Chance ൠ '''Bonus Pest Chance'''] is the key strategy for pest farming, it is what allows you to make more than others who farm. There are many ways to get Bonus Pest Chance and the maximum you can currently obtain is 517.5% Bonus Pest Chance. However you only need a minimum of 300 to start, you will want to have at least 300 pest chance so that you spawn 4 pests at a time (1 base spawn + 3 from Bonus Pest Chance). However having more than 4 pests on your garden at once can decrease your farming fortune, so just keep that in mind.
{| class="wikitable"

|}
These percentages can be reduced by having more Bonus Pest Chance, but you will want to have your normal farming gear when vacuuming up the pests for the most drops and drop chance, which will be covered in '''Tools and Equipment'''. The Reason for 4 pests is that when calculating your farming fortune on pest drops, it will minus the total amount of pests in your garden, then calculate the pest drops. Thus it is as though you had no reduction to farming fortune at all.

== Pest Traps ==
Pest Traps are an important part of pest farming as they are the only way to spawn Field Mice. The Vermin Trap is the third tier of the [https://wiki.hypixel.net/Pest_Trap Pest Trap], and it is recommended to use Vermin Traps because they can store four pest, and have a 4x chance to spawn a Field Mouse. This is a passive way to spawn pests as the traps fill up even when you are offline. Pest Traps seam to spawn one pest about every 10 minutes. The only downside to using traps is that they consume a bait for every pest caught, this can be expensive for new players, or annoying to get for Ironman players. The up sides to using traps is that you get extra pests and crop drops without putting in any work, you also spawn Field Mice that you can kill to gain drops and bestiary that increases your farming fortune and bonus pest chance(If you are using a brown bandana). The type of pest that spawn in traps are effected by the bait in the trap, and the vinyl you are playing on your vacuum. Using the correct vinyl paired with using specific bait, and planning a head of time can spawn a lot of specific pests that can give you an advantage in [https://wiki.hypixel.net/Jacob%27s_Farming_Contest Jacobs Contests].

= ''Building the Best Pest Farm'' =
[[File:ZachplaysAN's cane farm.png|thumb|397x397px]]
Although pests won’t spawn slower or faster depending on the crop you farm, the crop you farm can be a hindrance to vacuuming, spawning or finding pests. You will want an optimized farm, meaning as close to 20 blocks per second and you will want a one by one infinite farm, so you don’t have to spray multiple plots with the Sprayonator. However, all melon farms require multiple plots and are the current best crop to farm, so that is one exception. Although there are exceptions, the two best crops for pest farming, and are infinite (at Garden lvl 15) are the melon and the wheat farms. This being said, I do not recommend that you use any mega farms, farms such as the Grooveman 7.0 farm, as they are long, tall, and complicated. With the melon and wheat farms, you can place a layer of glass over the top of the farm so that the pests will always spawn on top as shown by this screenshot of [https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCJPSSQAQ9_iPwpJqnd4WSIw '''ZachplaysAN’s'''] sugarcane farm. These are just examples, but you can add a roof to any farm, just make sure when you build it to leave some space to build the roof because the build height in the garden is very low. Currently the best farm for coins is the melon farm. The reason for this is because farming melons normally makes the most money on average compared to other crops. Pest farming is not any different because you are still farming melons for most of the time. The only down sides to this are that it might be hard to get out of the farm, but you can solve this by using an [https://wiki.hypixel.net/Aspect_Of_The_Void Aspect of the Void], or warping to the infested plot. The second downside to using a melon farm is that you need to spray five plots every 30 minutes instead of one plot. The second option is the wheat farm, this is because you can achieve 20 block per second broken, and it is easily loopable, because of this, you can spawn a few more pests per hour than a melon farm. Over all, if you are going for coins, pest farming on a melon farm is slightly more profitable despite having to spray five plots.

= ''Tools and Equipment'' =
This section will be split into five sections, Armor, Equipment, Pets, Pest tools, and Attribute Shards. Each one of these sections is vital for pest farming with maximum efficiency.

== ''Armor'' ==
To begin, let's talk about armor. Even sense update 0.24, you only need one set of armor, Helianthus. Technically it is better to use two sets of Helianthus armor, one with mossy and one with Mantid; However if you don't plan on farming for 800 hours, it is probably not worth it. The set of Mantid would be used while spawning pests and is a net gain of only 21 bonus pest chance so the difference is minimal. I would only use a second set of Helianthus if you first have the money for it, and plan on pest farming for hundreds of hours. Because this is a beginners guide, I will assume you do not have billions of coins to spend on a second farming set for the rest of this guide. The tow farming sets should be maxed differently which includes the following.
{| class="wikitable"

{{subtext|color=gray||text=*Again, you can use two sets of Helianthus armor if you really want to hyper max everything at the expense of your bank. Getting perfect gemstones on the second set is very expensive as you only wear this set for a few seconds at a time, it takes thousands of hours to make back.}}

== ''Equipment'' ==
The next section is the Equipment that you need.
{| class="wikitable"

{{subtext|color=gray||text=You may chose to add Recombobulators to your equipment if you have the money and plan on pest farming for a long time. If you are equipment swapping, you can get away with a lower level of green thumb level on the pest equipment if you are low on money.}}

Now the reason that we are using the Pest Vest aside from the Blossom Cloak, Pesthunter’s Cloak, or Zorro Cape, is that the Pest Vest gives two unique bonuses. It provides +10 Bonus Pest Chance and also reduces the spawn cooldown of pests by 15%, shortening our time between pest spawns as opposed to 10% reduction from the Pesthunter’s Cloak.

== '''''Equipment swapping''''' ==
Another Strategy you can use is to have a full Blossom Equipment Set that you can switch too to get more farming fortune when farming during pest cool down and when vacuuming pests. This strategy is optional and can increase your profit, especially if you are just starting. The only downside is it costs more money to get the set up, and it adds an extra step when swapping your armor and pets. If you want to equipment swap while pest farming, here is what you will need:

{{subtext|color=gray||text=*You can substitute Blossom equipment for Lotus; however, the difference in ff between pest equipment and Lotus is smaller.}}

== ''Pets'' ==
For Pets you will need the '''[https://wiki.hypixel.net/Mooshroom_Cow_Pet Mooshroom Cow Pet]''' (or Rose Dragon Preferably), [https://wiki.hypixel.net/Mosquito_Pet Mosquito Pet] for the Bonus Pest Chance, and '''[https://wiki.hypixel.net/Hedgehog_Pet Hedgehog Pet]''' (pest damage and Farming Fortune on pests).

Now of course you will want to have your pets as close to or at level 100 to have the best efficiency. With that being said you can and should substitute the Mooshroom Cow Pet with the '''[https://wiki.hypixel.net/Elephant_Pet Elephant Pet]''' if you have less than 1,172 strength since the elephant will provide more farming fortune. If you are farming for money however (opposed to a contest) you should always use a Mooshroom Cow (or Rose Dragon Preferably) even at 0 strength as the bonus mushrooms generated by the “Mushroom Eater” perk will add a boost to your income.

== ''Tools'' ==
Regarding tools, we recommend that you use whatever specialized tool that Anita will sell you for each crop (eg. Melon Dicer for Melons). There used to be an exception in the form of the '''[https://hypixelskyblock.minecraft.wiki/wiki/Daedalus_Axe Daedelus Axe]''' for farming mushrooms. However with a past update, using the Daedalus Axe will '''NOT''' allow you to break blocks.

You will also need a '''Sprayonator''' and the '''Infinivacuum ™ Hooverius''' to spray for your pest on your farm and the vacuum to play vinyls and suck up pests.

== Accessories ==
[https://hypixelskyblock.minecraft.wiki/wiki/Pesthunter_Relic Pesthunter Relic] is the only accessory necessary for pest farming; it gives 80 bonus pest chance and is purchasable from Pesthunter Phillip. There are other accessories that buff farming fortune such as the atmospheric filter or the Helianthus Relic.

= ''Attribute Shards'' =
With the addition of update 0.23 The Foraging Update, Hypixel introduced Attribute Shards revamping the attribute system and providing a way to further improve farming. There are many Shards that Improve farming in general but we will only cover the shards that only affect pests and their drops. for all farming related shards visit the [[Farming Attributes]] Wiki.

'''Pest Shard:''' Also known as the Pest Luck Attribute, this is an uncommon shard that requires 64 shards to max. You obtain these by using a pocket black hole or a lasso on any pests in your garden (also vacuum kills while using salts). Pest Luck shards give a +2% -> +20% chance to obtain Rare loot from Pests. This is a must-have shard, as a +20% buff to rare drops, such as polished pumpkins, tightly tied hay bales, and other RNG drops will significantly increase your hourly rates.

'''Praying Mantis Shard:''' This is the Insect Power Shard and is uncommon requiring 64 shards to max. These are acquired by fusing 5 Pest shards and 5 more Pest shards at the Fusion Machine in Galatea. The effect the Insect Power shard gives is +5% -> +50% more damage to pests. This is one of the less useful shards as currently a fully maxed vacuum and hedgehog pet will instantly suck up pests. This can, however, be useful during the years with Mayor Derpy as all mobs including pests have double health.

'''Termite Shard:''' The Infiltration Shard is an uncommon shard needing 64 shards to max. The Infiltration shard is obtained from fusing 5 Praying Mantis Shards and 5 of any Bug Family Shard in the Fusion Machine on Galatea. This Shard is more useful than the last providing +3 -> +30 Farming Fortune if the Garden plot currently has a pest in it. This fortune also applies to each pest when you use your vacuum to suck them up.

'''Lunar Moth Shard:''' The Lunar Power Shard is an epic shard requiring 32 shards to max. Unlike all the previous shards mentioned, this shard is useful for normal farming as well. Lunar Power shards provide +5 -> +50 Farming Fortune during the night. It is obtained by Fusing 5 ladybug shards with 5 of any Rare or higher Bug family shard. Since you will already have your garden set to night as opposed to day for 3X stats on your biohazard armor, this is a great opportunity for more farming fortune.

= Chips =
With the addition of update 0.24, the Greenhouse update, a new system was added to the game. This added "chips" to the game, very similar to attribute shards, chips give permanent buffs to your account. Just like attributes, I will only show you the ones that directly impact pest farming, but keep in mind there are 10 total chips. Each chip can go up to level 20, and are upgraded using a new powder like currency called sowdust. You gain sowdust by simply farming. At certain level intervals, you have to redeem a physical chip item to continue upgrading it. level 1-10 requires one chip, 11-15 requires 4 chips, 16-20 requires 16 more chips (all totaling to 21 chip items per maxed chip).

== Pest Shard Hunting ==
With the addition of update 0.23, some players have experimented with a altered version of pest farming where you prioritize getting pest shards, witch could potentially make more money that traditional pest farming. The basic idea behind this method is to use a [https://hypixelskyblock.minecraft.wiki/wiki/Lassos lasso] on pests to obtain their shards, witch could sell for more than the drops themselves. There is also another strategy where you use a specifically upgraded vacuum to get pests down to 10% of their max HP. This allows you to be able to use a [https://wiki.hypixel.net/Medium_Pocket_Black_Hole black hole] to receive both their normal drop, and their shards. For both of these methods you will want to max out hunter fortune shards as well was farming related shards. It is also recommended to use salts in order to gain extra shards from time to time. Most people don't pest shard hunt because both of these methods require more time and effort. However, this is especially true for the second one.

'''Strategy One:''' This strategy is simple, and only takes slightly more time and effort than traditional pest farming. Keep in mind that some pests, specifically faster pests can be extremely annoying to '''lasso'''. This strategy is as simple as it sounds, all you need is a normal pest farming set up, as well as a '''lasso''', preferably the highest tier. You also want a [https://wiki.hypixel.net/David%27s_Cloak David's Cloak] with as high hunter fortune as you can get. When your pests spawn, equip your '''David's Cloak''' and rare or higher [https://wiki.hypixel.net/Frog_Pet Frog Pet], The reason for doing this is to increase the amount a shards you receive from pests. Then, you lasso each of the pests instead of using a vacuum. This is the less common of the two strategies as it is highly Bazaar dependent and makes about the same amount of money as traditional pest farming, or even less.

'''Strategy Two:''' This strategy is the more common and complex of the two, and needs a special set up. In addition to a normal pest farming set up, you will need a '''David's Cloak''', a '''Black Hole''', and a specialized vacuum. This strategy relies on the '''black hole''' feature that allows you to receive both the standard drops and the shards from creatures you kill. However, in order to use the '''black hole''', the creature needs to be at max at 10% of its max health (10% of 600HP = 60HP), to do this we can't use a max vacuum. For this to work you need to make sure you have the Praying mantis shard '''TURNED OFF'''. You should use a '''Infinivacuum ™ Hooverius''' with no [https://wiki.hypixel.net/Bookworm%27s_Favorite_Book Bookworm's Favorite Books] and the Beady reforge (for this method you will be using a Hedgehog Pet, instead of a Frog Pet). When you spawn your pests, equip your '''David's Cloak''' and damage the pest once with your vacuum, then use your '''Black Hole''' to suck it up. While the animation is playing, swap to your highest Farming Fortune tool to maximize crop drops. Then repeat with all of the other pests, keep in mind that your Farming Fortune does matter with this strategy. When you are done, you will find that you received both the Pest Shards, and the pest's crop drops. This method might sound perfect, but keep in mind it requires more time, and effort than any other farming strategy; However, it makes a significant amount more than any other method. Some people claim that they make 8-11m more than traditional pest farming, thus making a total of ~65-70m when fully maxed.

= ''Pest Farming'' =
[https://youtu.be/7RUMO7vvMyc Simple Pest farming video demonstration] '''(more efficient video below)'''

The video above was annoying and not loading or being able to be inserted, so you can use this link to see what you are supposed to do. Otherwise here is a summary of what was done in the video:

# Spray your plot with your bait of choice.
# Equip Mooshroom Cow or Elephant pet and start to farm normally
# Once it is getting close to 2 minutes and 15 seconds, Switch to Mosquito pet, and start farming. (and swap to 3/4 pest hunter equipment and pest vest if you are equipment swapping)
# Once the Pests have spawned, type “/setspawn” in the chat (or use a hot key)
# Then switch to Hedgehog pet (and swap to Blossom equipment if you are equipment swapping)
# After vacuuming the pests, type “/warp garden” (or use a hot key)
# Repeat starting on step “2”
[https://youtu.be/i9VyQxWLFDs Advanced Pest Farming Video with key binds and equipment swaps]

A useful tip is to use key binds and '''[https://wiki.hypixel.net/Autopet AutoPet Rules]''' to make the process faster and more efficient. Here are the commands you should choose to key bind. Key bind “/setspawn” and “/warp garden” to return to the farm faster. You may also choose to set key binds to open your wardrobe slot if you are using double Helianthus. The rules you should have in Auto Pet are as follows:
{| class="wikitable"
|If you throw a fishing hook, except if you have Hedgehog or Mushroom Cow equipped.
|Summon Hedgehog
|-
|If you throw a fishing hook, except if you have Mushroom Cow or Mosquito equipped.
|Summon Mooshroom Cow
|-
|If you throw a fishing hook, except if you have Mosquito or Hedgehog equipped.
|Summon Mosquito
|}
These pet rules will rotate though the three pets in the order that you want them too. First farming normally with the cow, then swapping to mosquito to spawn the pest, finally swapping to Hedgehog to kill the pests, and back to cow to repeat. These are some pet rules I have made, but feel free to make your own especially if your setup differs from the one in the guide (Rose Dragon or running double Helianthus).

=== Why not [insert armor piece]? ===

==== Lantern Helmet ====
Lantern Helmet is not recommended because while it is a negligible increase in Farming Fortune while using an axe early on, you lose extra chance for rare crops (Cropie, Squash, Fermento, and Helianthus) and Bonus Pest Chance. It is also completely outclassed once you get Fermento Helmet with even just Bustling or Mantid reforge, let alone Mossy.

==== Rabbit Armor ====
Rabbit Armor is too expensive for the little benefit it provides during the short time you'd use it before unlocking Melon Armor, and the boots do not have anti-trample.

==== Farmer Boots ====
Farmer Boots should only be crafted as a prerequisite to craft Rancher's Boots, but are not recommended to use due to loss of extra rare crop chance and Bonus Pest Chance. Additionally, they also do not have anti-trample.

==== Rancher's Boots ====
Rancher's Boots should generally only be used if you're not able to unlock the [https://hypixelskyblock.minecraft.wiki/wiki/Sundial Sundial] yet. Before Helianthus, Rancher's Boots may provide more Farming Fortune than the matching boots for your set, so they may potentially be worth using for contests, but you lose out on extra rare crop chance and Bonus Pest Chance.

==== Biohazard Armor ====
This armor set used to be a must have for pest farming, but it has been nerfed and its Bonus Pest Chance has been incorporated into regular farming armor. While it does provide more Bonus Pest Chance than anything below Fermento Armor, it is generally not worth getting anymore unless your intention is solely to rush bestiary or Pest Shards, as regular farming armor sets provide a better balance of stats, having higher Farming Fortune and giving you the chance for rare crops that are essential to upgrading your armor.

=== Why not [insert armor piece]? ===

==== Lantern Helmet ====
Lantern Helmet is not recommended because while it is a negligible increase in Farming Fortune while using an axe early on, you lose extra chance for rare crops (Cropie, Squash, Fermento, and Helianthus) and Bonus Pest Chance. It is also completely outclassed once you get Fermento Helmet with even just Bustling or Mantid reforge, let alone Mossy.

==== Rabbit Armor ====
Rabbit Armor is too expensive for the little benefit it provides during the short time you'd use it before unlocking Melon Armor, and the boots do not have anti-trample.

==== Farmer Boots ====
Farmer Boots should only be crafted as a prerequisite to craft Rancher's Boots, but are not recommended to use, due to loss of extra rare crop chance and Bonus Pest Chance. Additionally, they also do not have anti-trample.

==== Rancher's Boots ====
Rancher's Boots should generally only be used if you're not able to unlock the [https://hypixel-skyblock.fandom.com/wiki/Sundial Sundial] yet. Before Helianthus, Rancher's Boots may provide more Farming Fortune than the matching boots for your set, so they may potentially be worth using for contests, but you lose out on extra rare crop chance and Bonus Pest Chance.

==== Biohazard Armor ====
This armor set used to be a must have for pest farming, but it has been nerfed and its Bonus Pest Chance has been incorporated into regular farming armor. While it does provide more Bonus Pest Chance than anything below Fermento Armor, it is generally not worth getting anymore unless your intention is solely to rush bestiary or Pest Shards, as regular farming armor sets provide a better balance of stats, having higher Farming Fortune and giving you the chance for rare crops that are essential to upgrading your armor.

Bonus Pest Chance

2026-02-13T02:31:53Z

Luna: /* Bonus Pest Chance */

== Bonus Pest Chance ==
[https://wiki.hypixel.net/Bonus_Pest_Chance Bonus Pest Chance] (or BPC) is a stat that affects the chance to spawn additional pests whenever one would spawn on your Garden while actively farming. It does not affect offline spawns or Pest/Mouse/Vermin Traps.

== Pest Spawning Formula ==
<math>\text{Average Pest Spawns} = 1 + \frac{\text{BPC}}{100}</math>

<math>\text{Guaranteed Pest Spawns} = 1 + \left\lfloor\frac{\text{BPC}}{100}\right\rfloor</math>

<math>P(\text{Additional Pest Spawn}) = \frac{\text{BPC}}{100} \bmod 1</math>

{{subtext|color=grey|text=Just like how Farming Fortune works, every 100 Bonus Pest Chance guarantees an additional pest. Any additional BPC gives a percentage chance for one more pest to spawn. 
For example: 250 BPC = 3 pests + 50% chance of an additional pest.}}

=== Decreasing Pest Spawn Time ===
==== Decreasing Cooldown ====
The base cooldown is 5 min.

* Pesthunter's Necklace (-10%)
* Pest Vest (-15%)
* Pesthunter's Belt (-10%)
* Pesthunter's Gloves (-10%)
* Squeaky Reforge (-2.5% each, -10% total)
* Finnegan's Pest Eradicator perk (-20%)

This results in a total reduction of 55% (making the cooldown 2 min 15 s) outside Finnegan, or 75% (making it 1 min 15 s) during Finnegan.

== Bonus Pest Chance ==
[https://wiki.hypixel.net/Bonus_Pest_Chance Bonus Pest Chance] (or BPC) is a stat that affects the chance to spawn additional pests whenever one would spawn on your Garden while actively farming. It does not affect offline spawns or Pest Traps/Mouse Traps.

== Pest Spawning Formula ==
<math>\text{Average Pest Spawns} = 1 + \frac{\text{BPC}}{100}</math>

<math>\text{Guaranteed Pest Spawns} = 1 + \left\lfloor\frac{\text{BPC}}{100}\right\rfloor</math>

<math>P(\text{Additional Pest Spawn}) = \frac{\text{BPC}}{100} \bmod 1</math>

{{subtext|color=grey|text=Just like how Farming Fortune works, every 100 Bonus Pest Chance guarantees an additional pest. Any additional BPC gives a percentage chance for one more pest to spawn. 
For example: 250 BPC = 3 pests + 50% chance of an additional pest.}}

Frequently Asked Questions

Luna: page does not exist

Frequently asked questions about farming!

=== What do I upgrade next for Farming Fortune? ===
You can look up your profile on the [https://elitebot.dev/ Elite Farmers website] to determine missing upgrades. Some things will have to be input manually due to the information not being in Hypixel's API.

Another option is downloading the mod [[SkyHanni]] and using the <code>/ff</code> command in game. You can then click on the paper icon on the left of the menu that appears and get a list of upgrades. Note that nowadays this is quite outdated and is missing some of the newer upgrades, but it will still get you up to speed with many baseline upgrades.

=== How much money/coins should I be making? ===
There are a few ways you can see estimated profit/hr.

* <big>'''[[SkyHanni]]''' -</big> Use the <code>/sh money per hour</code> feature to see a list of your estimated profit per hour for each crop.
* <big>'''Elite Website''' -</big> Visit your profile on [https://elitebot.dev elitebot.dev] and view the '''Rates''' tab, from there you can select options and view your profit per hour when selling crops to NPC.
* <big>'''[[Elite Bot]]''' -</big> Use the <code>/rates</code> command from the Elite Discord bot (available in the [[Elite Farmers | Elite Farmers Discord]]), you can enter your farming fortune number and get estimated profit when selling to NPC.

=== Which pet is best? ===
<big>'''Mooshroom Cow''' -</big> Best pet for coins/h (and mushroom collection/h) even at 0 strength. Equal to elephant for collection/h for all crops from 1143 strength, better from 1172 and up. 
<big>'''Elephant''' -</big> Second best pet for collection/h for all crops. Only use if you have under 1143 strength and dont care about money. 
<big>'''Rabbit''' -</big> Best pet for farming exp. Use on mushrooms for the most XP gain. 
<big>'''Bee''' -</big> Not really worth for farming, only gives 50 farming fortune when maxed. 
<big>'''Black Cat''' -</big> Older designs abused a bug with the black cat to get over 400 speed, however that bug has been patched and Black Cat has become obsolete.

==== Use this flow chart to help choose your pet ====

|}

=== Bountiful or Blessed? ===

<big>'''Bountiful''' - </big> Use for profit, you get around {{color|color=#ffaa00|text=~200k-1.4m more coins per hour}} depending on the crop and farming fortune. Bountiful gives .2 coins per crop drop, not blocks broken. Crops with a higher drop rate like melon benefit significantly from bountiful. 
<big>'''Blessed''' - </big> Use for collections/milestones or XP, but it's not significantly faster for either. Blessed is usually only recommended when grinding xp for Farming 40.

=== Lotus Cloak or Zorro's Cape? ===

Zorro's cape is on average {{color|color=#ffaa00|text=+13.33 Farming Fortune}} better than lotus if both are maxed.

When a contest is active, even if you don't participate, maxxed Zorro's cape will be {{color|color=#ffaa00|text=+48 Farming Fortune}} better than maxxed lotus, and outside a contest it is {{color|color=#ffaa00|text=-4 Farming Fortune}} worse than lotus.

You may think that because it's worse outside a contest, you should switch to lotus, but you would have to switch in under '''2.1 seconds!''' which is realistically not happening, so always keep your Zorro's cape active.

===== TL;DR =====
Zorro's cape is better than lotus. Just make sure you have Zorro unlocked before you buy!

[https://wiki.hypixel.net/Bonus_Pest_Chance Bonus Pest Chance] (or BPC) is a stat that affects the chance to spawn additional pests whenever one would spawn on your Garden while actively farming. It does not affect offline spawns or Pest Traps/Mouse Traps.

=== Decreasing Pest Spawn Time ===
==== Decreasing Cooldown ====
The base cooldown is 5 min.

* Pesthunter's Necklace (-10%)
* Pest Vest (-15%)
* Pesthunter's Belt (-10%)
* Pesthunter's Gloves (-10%)
* Squeaky Reforge (-2.5% each, -10% total)
* Finnegan's Pest Eradicator perk (-20%)

This results in a total reduction of 55% (making the cooldown 2 min 15 s) outside Finnegan, or 75% (making it 1 min 15 s) during Finnegan.

==== Increasing Spawn Chance ====
* Sprayonator - 1/500 (avg. 25 s at 20 BPS -> 1/250 (avg. 12.5 s at 20 BPS)
* Atmospheric Filter (during Autumn) - 1/250 (avg. 12.5 s at 20 BPS) -> 1/212.5 (avg. 10.625 s at 20 BPS)

'''Hypixel Wiki Article:''' https://wiki.hypixel.net/Pests

Pests are a type of mob that spawn on the garden that reduce a player's farming fortune as they accumulate. Due to the fortune reduction, and the fact that vacuuming pests requires a player to stop farming while doing so, it's widely accepted that the introduction of pests was primarily done to combat cheaters.

A valid secondary motivation may be that Hypixel intends to make farming a more active skill, as the ability for players to farm while actively doing other things has been criticized by both players and Hypixel Admins.

<blockquote>
The most efficient way to play the game shouldn’t include a boring and daunting task.

The best way to level up Farming shouldn't be to farm <insert best crop> from lvl 10 to 60, without any new interesting mechanics in between.

== Bonus Pest Chance ==
Bonus Pest Chance is a stat that increases the amount of pests you spawn at once. Read the page for that [[Bonus Pest Chance|here]].

== Fortune Decrease ==
Having pests spawned on your Garden decreases your farming fortune according to the table below. When fortune is applied to a pest kill, the pest that was just killed does not count towards the fortune decrease. So if you have 4 pests on your garden and kill one, that pest gets subtracted first, leaving your fortune untouched for that kill.

'''You can have one more pest spawned on your garden for every 100 Bonus Pest Chance''' before the fortune decrease starts. For example, at 100 Bonus Pest Chance you can have 4 pests spawned with no decrease in fortune, and the 5th pest will reduce your fortune by 5%, with the next spawns following the order below.

=== Normal Crop Drops Calculation ===
The normal crop drops are calculated with the following formula.

<math>\text{Crops} = 160 \times \left(\text{Base Items} + \frac{\text{Universal Fortune} + \text{Crop Fortune} + \text{Bonus Fortune}}{\text{Fortune Scaling}} \right )</math>

'''Bonus Fortune''' - +100 for [https://wiki.hypixel.net/Beady_Eyes Beady Reforge] and +1-100 for [https://wiki.hypixel.net/Hedgehog_Pet Hedgehog Pet] (depending on its level), for a maximum of 200 total.

=== RNG Drops Calculation ===
This formula applies to all pest drops that have a base drop chance of less than 5%. Pet Luck as shown below is only included for pet drops.

'''Note:''' Slug pests have an equal chance to drop both types of Enchanted Mushroom Block, so this chance should be rolled twice when calculating drops for slugs.

<math>\text{RNG Drop Chance} = \text{Base Drop Chance} \times \left ( 1 + \frac{\text{Universal Fortune} + \text{Crop Fortune} + \text{Bonus Fortune} + \text{Pet Luck}}{600} \right )</math>

You can get the expected crops dropped from RNG for an amount of pests killed by plugging the resulting '''RNG Crop Chance''' into the following calculation. This is a perfect average, given enough pests killed the total drops are expected to equal the result of this, but it won't be perfect on smaller sample sizes.

<math>\text{Crops} = \text{Pests Killed} \times \text{RNG Drop Chance} \times \text{Crops In Item}</math>

'''Crops In Item''' - The amount of crop items used to craft the item that's being dropped. Reference the table above for these numbers.

{{subtext|color=red|text=NOTE: ff for drops is calculated '''after''' killing the pest, meaning there is no ff decrease when killing pests at 4 pests, but there is at 5 pests}}

=== Pest Farming Strategies ===
[[Pests/Strategies]]

== Farming Weight ==
The intention of farming weight is to balance farming weight gain between all crops. Pest drops can't be accounted for at max rates, due to bonus pest chance and a player's current farming fortune both being factors in crop drops.

As a result, the farming weight calculation does its best to subtract crops gained from pests before applying the rest of the calculation. [https://elitebot.dev/info#Pests Read more here]

== Bonus Pest Chance ==
[https://wiki.hypixel.net/Bonus_Pest_Chance Bonus Pest Chance] (or BPC) is a stat that affects the chance to spawn additional pests whenever one would spawn on your Garden while actively farming. It does not affect offline spawns or Pest Traps/Mouse Traps.

== Pest Spawning Formula ==
<math>\text{Average Pest Spawns} = 1 + \frac{\text{BPC}}{100}</math>

<math>\text{Guaranteed Pest Spawns} = 1 + \left\lfloor\frac{\text{BPC}}{100}\right\rfloor</math>

<math>P(\text{Additional Pest Spawn}) = \frac{\text{BPC}}{100} \bmod 1</math>

{{subtext|color=grey|text=Just like how Farming Fortune works, every 100 Bonus Pest Chance guarantees an additional pest. Any additional BPC gives a percentage chance for one more pest to spawn. 
For example: 250 BPC = 3 pests + 50% chance of an additional pest.}}

== Bonus Pest Chance ==
[https://wiki.hypixel.net/Bonus_Pest_Chance Bonus Pest Chance] (or BPC) is a stat that affects the chance to spawn additional pests whenever one would spawn on your Garden while actively farming. It does not affect offline spawns or Pest Traps/Mouse Traps.

== Pest Spawning Formula ==
<math>\text{Average Pest Spawns} = 1 + \frac{\text{BPC}}{100}</math>

<math>\text{Guaranteed Pest Spawns} = 1 + \left\lfloor\frac{\text{BPC}}{100}\right\rfloor</math>

<math>P(\text{Additional Pest Spawn}) = \frac{\text{BPC}}{100} \bmod 1</math>

{{subtext|color=grey|text=Just like how Farming Fortune works, every 100 Bonus Pest Chance guarantees an additional pest. Any additional BPC gives a percentage chance for one more pest to spawn. 
For example: 250 BPC = 3 pests + 50% chance of an additional pest.}}

== Bonus Pest Chance ==
[https://wiki.hypixel.net/Bonus_Pest_Chance Bonus Pest Chance] (or BPC) is a stat that affects the chance to spawn additional pests whenever one would spawn on your Garden while actively farming. It does not affect offline spawns or Pest Traps/Mouse Traps.

== Pest Spawning Formula ==
<math>\text{Average Pest Spawns} = 1 + \frac{\text{BPC}}{100}</math>

<math>\text{Guaranteed Pest Spawns} = 1 + \left\lfloor\frac{\text{BPC}}{100}\right\rfloor</math>

<math>P(\text{Additional Pest Spawn}) = \frac{\text{BPC}}{100} \bmod 1</math>

{{subtext|color=grey|text=Just like how Farming Fortune works, every 100 Bonus Pest Chance guarantees an additional pest. Any additional BPC gives a a percentage chance for one more pest to spawn. 
For example: 250 BPC = 3 pests + 50% chance of an additional pest.}}
