The Arrow of Infestation applies the Infested effect upon hitting a target. This effect causes silverfish to spawn on the affected entity whenever it takes damage, swarming and attacking nearby players or mobs.

This arrow can be obtained either by crafting or by using a cauldron. To craft it, players must surround 8 arrows with a Lingering Potion of Infestation in a crafting table. Alternatively, it can be made by dipping arrows into a cauldron filled with a Potion of Infestation.

The Infinity enchantment does not apply to this arrow, meaning each shot consumes an arrow from the player’s inventory.
