Name That Bug

[PrivateAero]

I got some pics, I pulled a pinch of soil out and put it on an unopened grow bag and got some around 50x and some around 200x. These things were jumping like crazy so it was hard to focus. I'll hit them with doctor doom before I take next round of pics. Also I had probably 50 in one pinch of soil.

I've also got some more pics in my gallery or something. Under Bug Farm, cuz i grow them better than weed

springtails, not a threat to your plants.

I used the "Veho Discovery VMS-001" http://www.amazon.com/s/?ie=UTF8&ke...=aps&hvadid=8211104019&ref=pd_sl_3cnzpxiwg7_b. I paid $150 for it, I can't believe I just found it for $60.

The third bug in the picture looks like something else, I was hoping Microbeman would have something to say about it. Thanks for all the input guys, I slept much better last night.
