The Lavafly is a critter that spawn occasionally in the Underworld at night. The Lavafly has only 5 health and no defense, and can be damaged by other enemies and players.

The Lavafly can only be caught with the Lavaproof Bug Net or the Golden Bug Net. Trying to catch it with a standard Bug Net will only set the player on fire. After being caught, it can be carried around in the inventory and released later, or crafted into animated decorative furniture (Lavafly in a Bottle). Once crafted, the Lavafly cannot be released again, unless the furniture item is de-crafted via Shimmer(Desktop, Console and Mobile versions).

The Lavafly can be used as bait for fishing, with 25% bait power. Using it as bait also allows fishing in lava.
