Just touching one will cause it to explode, so to reduce the risk of personal injury, it is best for [[Banjo]] and [[Kazooie]] to take on Boom Boxes from a distance by firing [[Blue Eggs]] at them. The [[Wonderwing]] is also an effective solution, especially when faced with a large group. If the player is low on ammunition, Boom Boxes can be made to blow themselves up simply by letting them chase you for a few seconds.
