Use Brooms to Manage Sand and Dust Layers

Craft Your Broom

Brooms come in five tiers: wood, stone, iron, diamond, and netherite. Craft them using standard recipes for each material tier. Start with a wood or stone broom for basic cleanup.

Sweep Sand and Dust

Use your broom to sweep accumulated sand and dust layers from your base, paths, and structures. This is especially useful after storms pass through desert or sandy biomes, where wind deposits material across the landscape.

Efficiency Tips

Wood and stone brooms work fine for small areas. If you're managing large builds or frequently swept zones, upgrade to iron or higher tiers for faster clearing and durability.

Aesthetic Benefits

Regular sweeping keeps your base clean and prevents sand from burying decorative blocks or pathways. In biomes with high wind activity, you may need to sweep periodically as the mod's realistic wind systems deposit new layers over time.

Combine with Weather Planning

After major storms, use your broom to restore areas. Check your weather forecast to predict when the next dusty winds arrive, so you can plan cleanup sessions.
