Hostile mobsspawn in and around your builds at zero light level or if it is night time. Mobs such as creepers have the potential to destroy your creations, while others may attack you. There are many ways of preventing hostile creatures from spawning.
Basic spawn-proofing[]
Light blocks
One of the most basic ways to prevent mob spawning is by placing torches. These increase the light level around them, stopping hostiles from spawning. Other blocks such as glowstone or shroomlight emit higher light levels, but are harder to come by. This method does not work with mobs whose spawning does not rely on low light level, such as slimes, magma cubes and hoglins.
Mobs cannot spawn on blocks that are less than a full block in height. Areas covered in bottom slabs are unable to spawn mobs, no matter the light level, although double slabs, top slabs and upside-down stairs are still spawnable. Also, dirt path and farmland are partial blocks (15/16th of a block in height) and cannot be spawned upon.
Transparent blocks
Mobs also cannot spawn on top of transparent blocks, such as glass, or partially transparent blocks, such as leaves.

soul torch and soul lantern now stop all mob spawning. ever had a slim chunk in your underground mine or base. now instead of having to carpet or slab the area to stop them spawning you can place soul torches or soul lanterns around to stop all mob spawning works on grass animals, nether mobs. and in the end.
Transparent blocks like glass and leaf blocks also prevent any mob from spawning on them. Hence, they can be placed in certain areas as stylish flooring as well as help spawn-proofing. Though scaffolding is also considered a transparent block, it allows mobs to spawn.
Torches and other lights only prevent spawns in the chunk ( 16x16x16 area ) they are placed in mobs that spawn outside these areas will still wander in . Also mobs that were already spawned will still need to be dealt with as well .
