Default Springtail? Population explosion!
Our air conditioner went out last year and the expense to replace it is so high we have been toughing it out. Actually, it has not been very bad. The other night though, we were invaded by these little guys. They are so numerous that I believe I will need to treat them. They appear to be springtails to me. I know that they like moist, broken down media. However, the orchids they are on were repotted recently. They are not limited to my plants; since they came in through the screens, they are in the windows and the bathroom also.

Do you agree with this id?

What should I use to reduce their numbers?
