Minecraft endermite: where it comes from and why endermen hate it
The endermite is a tiny hostile arthropod, in fact the smallest hostile mob in the game by hitbox. It never spawns on its own in any biome. Every time a player throws an ender pearl and it lands, there is a 5% chance one appears. In Java it shows up where you threw the pearl from, and in Bedrock at the spot where the pearl lands.
It does not last long. After 120 seconds it despawns whether you are near or far, unless you named it, and that holds even if it is riding in a minecart or boat. While it lives, it bites any player within 16 blocks. In Java it also turns on any mob that hurts another endermite.
Its relationship with endermen is the interesting part. An enderman attacks any endermite it sees within 64 blocks, and in Bedrock the endermite attacks them back. That is why a named endermite, which no longer despawns, works as permanent bait to draw endermen in. According to a 2025 Minecraft.net article, endermites come from an in-between dimension and hate being dragged from one world to another.
As an arthropod it takes extra damage from Bane of Arthropods, like the silverfish it is considered a variant of. On death it only drops 3 experience when killed by a player or a tamed wolf, nothing else.
