Making an Object Destory Itself

So I know how to make an object destroy another object, but is it possible to have an object (in this case a prefab, if that matters) destroy itself? In this case I want it to destroy itself when it goes off the screen.

You just have to call destroy on it. If you attach something like the following:

if (your logic to check for off-screen){
    Destroy(gameObject);

in a place it’ll be called in code, it’ll destroy itself.

This is the best way to destroy object itself when it goes offscreen,

//C# example

 void OnBecameInvisible()
 {
    DestroyObject(gameObject);
 }
