Springtails (order Collembola) are tiny, fast-moving soil-dwelling invertebrates that play a vital role in keeping terrariums and bioactive enclosures clean and healthy. These micro clean-up crew members feed on mould, decaying organic matter, and waste, helping to maintain a balanced ecosystem and prevent harmful build-up. They thrive in moist environments and reproduce quickly, making them an essential addition to any bioactive setup.
Fun fact: Springtails get their name from a special tail-like structure called a furcula, which they use to launch themselves into the air like tiny trampolines—allowing them to “jump” many times their body length when disturbed!
Our starter culture inlcudes too many springtails to count.
