hello Greg

Yes they jump small jump i think also they are springtails, but as i know springtails are not harmful for the worm, and i think they are eating the sick worms only and hatched cocoon but i need to get rid of them if you have any idea about it

what to do about them? i dunno. maybe DE could help?

They are very soft and killed by touch easily
But too much of them

Can you give a little more information?  BY worms, do you mean earthworms, or some other kind of worm?

Are they found indoors or outdoors?  In what climate and geographic area do you live?

They are killing my worm and eat them and eat the cocoon. I used naim oil but still out of control
