Take the tour ×  I have found two cave spider spawners that I
can connect to eachother, but it is quite a complicated setup,
so I am spending a lot of time.  One big problem I am having
that the spawners are in a huge dungeon where I get attacked
often. I am wondering if a creeper can destroy my spawner when
he gets close somehow.  share|improve this question add comment
2 Answers  up vote 11 down vote accepted  Well, Creepers can
blow up stone and cobblestone, both of which have blast
resistances of 30. Since a spawner has a lower blast resistance
of 25, it can certainly get taken out by a nearby Creeper blast.
I suggest closing off side tunnels and keeping the area very
well lit while you are nearby doing any mining or construction
so that Creepers can't spawn. Then remove the lighting near the
spawners when you are done (so they can start spawning again).

creepers have a maximum blast strength of 56 (at point blank
range) and monster spawners hav
