No Villager Death Messages
No Villager Death Messages stops the console from logging a line each time a villager dies, which keeps busy villager farms from flooding the log.
What it does
By default the game writes one console message for every villager that is killed. On a large villager farm running for hours, those messages pile up quickly. The mod blocks the death message, so the log stays readable while the villagers still die as usual.
Either side can run the mod, and neither needs it. Forge and NeoForge builds cover 1.16.5 – 1.21.1, and the code is released under the MIT License, so it is open source.
Key features
Silenced villager deaths
Villager deaths no longer produce a console line, so the log is not filled during long farm sessions.
Targeted filtering
Only the villager death message is blocked, leaving other console output untouched.
Farm-friendly logs
Servers running villager farms keep a log that is easier to read and search.

What the author says
By default, villagers log a message to the console every time one is killed. This results in way too many messages when players are running any sort of villager farm.
