In this guide, you will find out five things you didn’t know about the Silverfish in Minecraft.
#1
Idle silverfish will disappear into the different stone blocks. By doing so, they turn the block into a monster egg block. When they disappear, they do it in a puff of white smoke; and when a nearby silverfish is hurt, the block will turn into a silverfish.
#2
When silverfish were released, they had the sound of a spider. The developers add the silverfish sound not long after.
#3
If a silverfish is killed in one hit, it won’t trigger nearby monster eggs.
#4
In beta, silverfish had 20 health points instead of 8. It has made them substantially more annoying to deal.
#5
Silverfish are so small they will suffocate in soul sand. The slight sinking happens when standing on soul and is enough to cover a big part of the silverfish.
