Springtail Supersoil

This hand-crafted blend of high quality inputs has been tailored to be light and airy, yet structured to encourage optimal springtail reproduction and withstand the test of long-term springtail culturing.

We use our Springtail Supersoil substrate to raise most of our beautiful springtails at a commercial level because it works for long-term success without generating excess CO2 or compacting down.

We recommend using Springtail Supersoil in your bioactive containers or springtail cultures as a starting media. Our Supersoil works amazing for the following types of springtails:

1. Red Springtails (Lobella)
2. Florida Orange Springtails (Neanura growae)
3. Orange Springtails (Yuukianura aphoruroides)
4. Giant Silver Bullet Springtails (Pogonognathellus dubius)
5. Globular Cave Springtails (Arrhopalites caecus)
6. Quicksilver Springtails (Tomocerus vulgaris)

If you're looking to rear a springtail not listed here, it is likely done better on clay. Check out our Springtail Calcium Clay

Storage: We store our Supersoil substrate frozen and recommend storing it in a freezer to avoid unwanted soil organisms from materializing in the soil.

Ingredients: Organic hardwood flake soil, worm castings, New Zealand sphagnum moss and small charcoal pieces
