A randomized block design reduces chance variation by removing the variation associated with the blocking variable. This gives a more precise estimate of chance variation. One further note: lurking variables cannot be eliminated, only dealt with. And in a true randomized block design, there is no interaction between the blocking variable and the explanatory variable.
