Colémbolos blancos (Folsomia candida)

• Our Springtails are captive bred.
• Do not release them into the wild (per USDA APHIS)

Prior to your springtails arrival, we recommend placing a glass of clean water out so that any chlorine can evaporate, and the water can reach room temperature.

• For the safest possible shipping, your springtail starter culture arrives on a moist paper towel.
• There may be many young springtails that are nearly impossible for the human eye to see on a paper towel.
• We recommend briefly filling the culture cup with the room-temperature / chlorine-free water and then immediately pouring the culture into your desired enclosure.

A second option is to place the entire paper towel into your prepared enclosure and leave it there for awhile so the new springtails can freely roam to their desired locations.

At Holy-Poly Isopods LLC, we pride ourselves on providing professional shipping.

• Our springtails are delivered on moist calcium-clay cultures.
