How to disable endermen from picking up blocks?

Plugins Plugin Development

I am writing a plugin, and, so far, I am able to disable endermen from breaking and placing blocks, but I cannot disable them picking the blocks up.

Here is my code:

    @Listener
    public void onBlockBreak(final ChangeBlockEvent event) {
        if(event.getCause().root() instanceof Enderman) {
            event.setCancelled(true);
            event.getTransactions().forEach(t->t.setValid(false));
            logger.info(":::: prevented an enderthief!");
        }
    }

if you are preventing them breaking blocks, then there is nothing to pick up, so clarify what you mean??

Tip: You can use event filters, like this:

@Listener
public void onBlockBreak(ChangeBlockEvent event, @Root Enderman enderman) {
