Message: <blockquote data-quote="m0lsx" data-source="post: 192685" data-attributes="member: 29323">If you want some springtails to clean up a one off issue, then get yourself a kitchen food container, cut a hole in the lid & hot glue some very fine material over that & start keeping some springtails in it. I collect Oak leaves locally & then microwave them before use. Oak leaves have the advantage of remaining available from a tree all year round. I also use yeast, which I sprinkle into an area under leaves in both enclosures, where I have springtails & into my food tub. I also very occasionally use a small amount of flaked fish food or a few grains of dried rice. By having a small tub of looked after springtails, I always have a teaspoon full available for any enclosure that needs it.[ATTACH=full]55394[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]55395[/ATTACH]</blockquote>
