How to make Infested Deepslate in Minecraft

This Minecraft tutorial explains how to craft infested deepslate with screenshots and step-by-step instructions.

Infested deepslate is a new item that was introduced in the Caves & Cliffs Update: Part I. It is a block that looks exactly like deepslate but spawns a silverfish when the block is broken.

In Minecraft, infested deepslate is an item that can not be crafted in the game. It is only available in Creative mode (not Survival mode) through the Creative Inventory menu.
