First appearancev1.04

The Silkworm is an item added by Ex Nihilo Adscensio. It is used to produce String on limited resources maps (primarily Skyblock).

Obtaining[]

Silkworms cannot be crafted. The only way to obtain one is by using a Crook to break Leaves.

Usage[]

Infesting Leaves[]

Right-click on a leaves block while holding a Silkworm infests it; the infestation gradually spreads to adjacent leaves blocks. The infested leaves can be broken with a Crook to receive String and Silkworms, making this a renewable process. Infested leaves do not drop Apples or saplings.

As food[]

Cooking Silkworms in a Furnace results in Cooked Silkworms, which restore 2 points of hunger with low saturation.

Composting[]

Silkworms can be composted in either cooked or raw form by using them on a Wooden Barrel or Stone Barrel. Each silkworm contributes 10% to the required amount.
