How to Apply:
1. Sprinkle a small pinch of Springtail Food directly onto the surface of your springtail culture or habitat.
2. For larger habitats, apply more as needed, ensuring there is enough food to sustain your colony but not so much that it accumulates.
3. Add food every 4-7 days or whenever the previous application is mostly consumed.
Pro Tips:
-To avoid overfeeding, start with smaller amounts and adjust as your colony grows.
