Minecraft silverfish: infested blocks and how to avoid the swarm
The silverfish is a small hostile arthropod that hides inside blocks. It comes out when you break an infested block, and those generate in strongholds, underground in mountains and windswept hills, in igloo basements and in the fake portal room of woodland mansions. An infested block broken with Silk Touch does not release a silverfish.
It has other sources too. Every stronghold's End portal room holds a silverfish spawner, and each trial chambers structure has a 25% chance of using it as its small melee mob. On top of that, anything with the Infested effect has a 10% chance of releasing one or two every time it takes damage.
The dangerous part is that it calls the others. If a silverfish survives one of your hits or poison damage, it wakes the ones hidden within a 21×11×21 area. The way to avoid that is to kill each one in a single hit. They chase the player and can see through walls, and Bane of Arthropods deals them extra damage and gives them Slowness IV.
When idle it burrows into a nearby stone, cobblestone, deepslate or stone brick block and turns it into an infested block. It cannot enter mossy cobblestone, slabs, stairs, andesite, diorite, granite or smooth stone. On death it drops nothing but 5 experience. In real life silverfish are harmless insects, the only real animals the game has turned into fully hostile mobs.
