They wont harm any of your animals, I have these in all my vivariums, you only notice them around the water bowls and they help keep the GAL rub clean, which is a mammoth task so I have to thank them for that, they even live in with my Tarantulas, I just leave them to it, they are cleaner bugs and save me a lot of cleaning, specially with the high humidity setups as mould would be a huge problem without them.
Cheers lotabob, I'v just been on the creepycrawley forum.Turns out there not springs, but not bad either, just help keep the millie clean.

Springtails are great little bugs, keeping things nice and clean.
Do you know if they transfer to other animals? |
