How do i get a lot of spring-tails for my out world? Do i catch them? Also my mom definitely would not approve of buying springtails. Should i also catch them with a lure like a bit of fruit? Ad i also dont want luring any other things (millipedes, centipedes, and anything that looks creepy and disgusting). Can anyone help?
