Oh. Fire bees bit bigger than Janky expect. Look mean.
Other hives meaner, though. This best spot.
You go grab wax. Janky stay here to...supervise. Yes!

one of many thoroughly irritating quests ....
This is a surprisingly difficult quest.
Don't turn in 'Mite not Right' until you've finished 'Hot Wax'. After you've gotten all the mites, you can still use the smoke to stun any bees that bother you while you're harvesting wax, and they won't drop anymore mites. Unfortunately, the smoke doesn't stun the Honey-Fused Droplets.
It would be nice if the Honey-Fused Droplets also dropped the Fire Bee Wax as well, since they inevitably spawn whenever you loot the Molten Wax.

Janky hears there are giant fire bees on surface. Fire bees make fire beeswax, yes? What if make candle from fire bee wax? What that be like? Janky must know!

This not good. Fancy fire bees have mites! Janky seen this before. Hive get infested, good bugs get sucked dry. End bad. Need do something! Blast bees with smoke. Makes bees sleepy but mites hate! When jump off, you squish before they bite bees again.
