well heck now I don't know... I scanned a live one on my scanner and found that it does kind of look like them but I have had a bunch in a glass jar (tiny 1 inch jar)and they have been there for 5 days (still alive) and one seems to have teenie tiny wings that are almost invisible... Mind you I took the advice on the springtails about moisture and fungus etc... that was on the page you recommended and then vaccumed everything in that room and at this point they seem to not be rebounding... Well right or wrong thanks for your help... I'll have to look at trying to post the scan I took of one to get confirmation..

Thanks, Ken
