The most common way to obtain Bane of Arthropods is through an Enchanting Table. You'll need XP and Lapis Lazuli to enchant an item.
Placing bookshelves around the Enchanting Table will increase the possible enchantment levels of an item. There must be one block of air between a bookshelf and the Enchanting Table for this to work.
Head out into open water and use your Fishing Rod to catch items with Bane of Arthropods enchantments. The Luck of the Sea enchant will increase your chances of catching enchanted items.
You'll find Bane of Arthropods in Treasure Chests in structures and dungeons around the world. Make sure you're properly equipped with armor and weapons since these areas will be infested with Mobs.
You'll be able to trade items with villagers to obtain Bane of Arthropods. Librarians will be your best bet since you can trade Emeralds for enchantments even at Novice levels.
You'll have to level up other Villager types to obtain their enchanted stock.
