I'm very good at catching springtails all you have to do is dig the dirt right next to the side walks, under rocks, or deep under ground you can basically find them everywhere. I'm also very good at finding Beetle grubs so if you want to know where you can get them let me know?

Is there a working trap for them?

Its almost impossible to catch them using traps. There are some videos of people making one using rice and yeast but they said that the results are very bad and you won't be able to establish a colony of them. Digging is a great way
Ants I have-
camponotus compressus colony- the shadow warriors.
Pls just let me have a tetramorium colony
