What is Infested Chiseled Stone Bricks in Minecraft?
An infested chiseled stone brick is a devious trap block that looks exactly like a regular chiseled stone brick, but it has a silverfish hiding inside it. Its main purpose is to be a surprise threat to players exploring strongholds. When an unsuspecting player breaks this block, instead of getting the block, a small and aggressive silverfish mob will pop out and attack. This can be very dangerous, as the silverfish can call other nearby silverfish to help it. For players, this block is mostly a hazard to be aware of, but it can also be collected and used to create clever traps of their own.
How to get Infested Chiseled Stone Bricks in Minecraft
The only way to get an infested chiseled stone brick block is to find one and mine it with a Silk Touch pickaxe. Infested blocks, including the chiseled stone brick variant, are found exclusively in strongholds, the underground fortresses where you find the End portal. They are mixed in with the regular stone brick walls. If you break an infested block with a regular pickaxe, a silverfish will spawn and the block will be destroyed. Using a pickaxe with the Silk Touch enchantment is the only way to pick up the block itself without releasing the mob inside. Another way an infested block can be created is when a silverfish mob attacks a player and then burrows into a nearby chiseled stone brick block, transforming it into an infested one.

Since it looks identical to a regular chiseled stone brick, you can place it in a wall or floor of another player's base.

You can also use them in adventure maps to create hidden dangers for players to overcome. Other than that, it has no other use. It cannot be used in any crafting recipes.
