Minecraft: build a lava trap

With lava traps you catch in Minecraft Monsters and can collect the items at the same time without further action. Only a few steps are necessary to create this. All you need is water and lava.

Build a lava trap

1. To create a lava trap in Minecraft, first make a trench two blocks wide and five blocks long. The trench must be a block deep. The trap can be created anywhere as long as you have water and lava in your inventory.
2. Build a wall of at least a block high around one half of the trench and set at the open end Another wall over the ditch so that the ditch remains open and the monsters in, but not come out.
3. Now fill the enclosed half of the trench with lava and the other half with water. If a monster falls into the lava or runs through the water into it, it dies.
4. Build a wall of at least a block high around one half of the trench and set at the open end Another wall over the ditch so that the ditch remains open and the monsters in, but not come out. You can enlarge the traps as you like and add further obstacles.

Use the traps in Minecraft

• You can use lava traps in Minecraft to eliminate unpleasant monsters. You just have to wait for the monsters to fall in there and die. To eliminate small monsters, you can expand the lava trap with cacti.
• Note that you need to protect sheep and other animals from these traps as they, like monsters, will die in the lava. The wool burns so that it cannot be collected.
• If you set up lava traps around buildings, they must be at least 1 block away from the house. It is best to dig a moat between the lava and the house to prevent it from igniting.
