I was visiting family down in Atl by you this summer and got some of your products. My sister told us about you and we want to keep our new home pest free so we got some of that Maxxthor. It worked great! We had ants and spiders and gnats in the bushes. This was back in September. Now its winter and I have springtails coming out from the baseboards! Is that even normal? Did they just move in or have they been there all along and I didn’t know? This house is new. We just moved in last January so 1 year old!!
We love that you came to the United States, got some of our products and put them to use with positive results! That said, your “new home” most likely had them “built in”. This is explained here:
As for seeing them active even though it’s winter? Well its not winter inside!
Springtails are quite cold tolerant so they’re actually able to deal with cold. Even the coldest temps Canada can produce. This is explained here:
That said, any outside adjacent to or even living under home siding are not likely to be migrating about looking to reproduce. But any inside where its 55 degrees or warmer? For sure they will be looking to spread out.
Remember, springtails you see out in the open are actively reproducing. And this will happen anytime its warm enough, outside or inside the home, so very much normal.
At this time you may have to come back down to the states and get some of our BITHOR and the POWER INJECTOR!
More on these and our short list of “recommended products” can be seen here:
what do you recommend for springtails and how much should I get?
