A bucket of wax is obtained by the "Take from" option on a Beehive, with empty buckets in your inventory and Insect repellent in your inventory or Tool belt.

A bucket spawns right beside the gate in the pen with the beehives west of Catherby.

Unlike most substances in a bucket, buckets of wax cannot be emptied to get the bucket back.

Quests

• It is used with swamp tar to make wax, which is used in Troll Romance.
• Used in Merlin's Crystal to make Black candle.
