In the mysterious world of Minecraft, Endermen are strange creatures. They teleport, they stare, and… they carry blocks. But not just any block! These tall, spooky fellas have a very specific taste.
So, what blocks can Endermen actually pick up and carry?
Let’s take a look!
🧱 Full List of Blocks Endermen Can Carry
Endermen can pick up the following blocks in vanilla Minecraft:
- Cactus
- Clay
- Coarse Dirt
- Rooted Dirt
- Dirt
- Short Flowers (like Dandelion, Poppy, etc.)
- Crimson Fungus
- Warped Fungus
- Crimson Roots
- Warped Roots
- Grass Block
- Gravel
- Melon
- Moss Block
- Mud
- Muddy Mangrove Roots
- Brown and Red Mushrooms
- Mycelium

They stick to natural, earthy stuff. So, no cobblestone castles or diamond blocksare being stolen, just nature’s goods.
🧠 Why Do They Do This?
Nobody knows for sure! Some say it’s part of their lore — these creatures may be trying to rebuild their own world, block by block. Others say it’s just part of the game’s mystery and charm.
Whatever the reason, it’s always a bit spooky when one of them snatches a block from your base!
🛡️ Keep Your Builds Safe
If you’re building in areas where Endermen roam (like The End, or even Overworld at night), use blocks they can’t pick up — or place carpets on top of blocks. That stops them from griefing your beautiful builds.
Or better yet, build and explore in peace with your friends on a Minecraft server of your own!
