Bugs in soil.

I had some soil sitting and found some very small bugs in it that hide from the light and jump. wtf are these?

Springtails most likely.

if they are tiny and white they could be springtails and just feed on decaying matter. i had them with no ill effects. i would say put pics up but you would have to be david bellamy to get the little fuckers on camera.

That's what it sounds like.
