As the name suggests, these Springtails are a native to Florida, USA. These beautiful orange springtails are an excellent addition to Bioactive enclosures because they are vibrant and bright members to your Clean Up Crew (CuC).

Since they grow to be big and colorful, they make an excellent source of food for smaller species like dart frogs. 

This species doesn't jump like traditional Springtails and tends to move slowly.

All sizes come in a 2oz container with special springtail soil substrate.

Every order includes a MI Beneficials, custom 3" vinyl Florida Orange Springtail sticker!
