    Default Re: Springtail question?

    Suggestion.
    Flood the culture, springtails will float. Then either collect them with a spoon or just dump that water into where you need it to be. You won't be able to transfer all springs, but you shouldn't. Keep it as a master culture, this way you have constant supply of springs. It's hard to kill them, I'm assuming they are in a deli cup, right? Then if you open a lid like every 2-3 days and feed them ( yeast, special mix) they will be alive and multiplying like there's no tomorrow
    Save one animal and it doesn't change the world, but it surely changes the world for that one animal!
