 Occasionally, Dust Bunnies merge together to create a swirling dust cloud. However, this only happens when they are severely agitated. Either out of annoyance or mischievousness, a single dust bunny may nibble at the heels of a passerby. The chances of this increase if a visitor is alone or attempting to clean up the dust. Occasionally, Dust Bunnies merge together to create a swirling dust cloud.

 A more contentious Pest of the Library, some Eternal Employees and even Guardians 'view' the Invisible Silkworms as an endearing presence. This is perhaps because the larvae are as adorable as they are voracious. They will eat just about anything in the Library and produce lovely silk garments from their cocoons.  A more contentious Pest of the Library, some Eternal Employees and even Guardians 'view' the Invisible Silkworms as an endearing presence.

 Urick the Wise Hedgehog is especially fond of the scarves that can be crafted from the silk. Once the larvae complete and crawl into their cocoons, their silk homes become visible. Albeit, the cocoons are difficult to uncover and are most frequently clustered in deep, dark recesses of bookcases or exhibit cases, making them extremely valuable to those who desire them. Urick the Wise Hedgehog is especially fond of the scarves that can be crafted from the silk.

 //If you hear some suspicious munching and spot the pages of rare texts or the leaves of scientific specimens disappearing, there is a high chance an invisible silkworm is the culprit. And you can expect most denizens of the Library to appreciate prompt and precise containment of the creature!// //If you hear some suspicious munching and spot the pages of rare texts or the leaves of scientific specimens disappearing, there is a high chance an invisible silkworm is the culprit.

 Flapping Cover Protectors will rise from an ill-fitting cover or burst from a shelf where they lay, un-homed, with startling ferocity. They are known to maul, nip and pester, as most other Pests of the Library tend to do. They share a startling amount of similarity with ambush predators in the natural world. Flapping Cover Protectors will rise from an ill-fitting cover or burst from a shelf where they lay, un-homed, with startling ferocity.

 The old Library Incarnations had no issue with thinning and managing the population of Cover Protectors, before some behavioralists and book binders thought better of it. The Flapping Cover Protectors soon became endangered, their populations unable to recover after too much culling. Nowadays, to destroy a Cover Protector that is simply uncomfortable, abandoned or threatened is considered a dire breach of the rules. The old Library Incarnations had no issue with thinning and managing the population of Cover Protectors, before some behavioralists and book binders thought better of it.
