Have I got springtails? Morgellons, skin and the home
“A US citizen’s house should be a sanctuary during these crazy times, a place to close the door on the outside world and relax.
But for many, a house is no longer a home. Across the US, home-owners are now struggling with a new home invasion

No Job or Pest too Small, with Pestaway Kwik™
Over these months of enforced lockdown, science has seen an exponential rise in people insisting that they have infestations of tiny, hopping, biting insects. Pest control companies have whole-heartedly agreed and have stated that they’re all definitely springtails, also known as Collembola and should be left to the professionals to remove. As Steve Jobs “Not that Steve Jobs, I’m a pest control agent” told us last year, when we started research for this article, sponsored by Pestaway Kwik™, - springtails are ” the number one dangerous, jumping, flea-like insect pest”. Scary stuff.
Better safe than sorry- let your friends at Pestaway Kwik™ put your mind to rest with our free initial consultation…
The springtail pest
Notice the springtail’s sharp teeth and claws and the jumping thing…
After very kindly drawing us a descriptive and scientifically accurate picture of The Springtail, Agent Steve Jobs, of the aforementioned Pestaway Kwik™, sat down with us to fill us in on some details.
Here are the facts that “those damned, soft, ill-informed etymologists, and they’re all financed by Big Science I’d bet…” don’t want you to know.
Springtails are drab insects, between an 1/8th of an inch in length, usually brown, white or grey with an ability to jump when disturbed and trying to attack. True to their name, they become a plague in Spring and then onwards through the summer months, ruining houses and risking health with their excretions, larvae, biting and cast off exoskeletons. Their diet is mainly moist stuff. It’s maybe possible that they can also spread flu viruses like the CORVID.

But just how do springtails get into our houses? And could they be a pest in the garden and in the soil too? We decided to find out.
In August 2019, we arranged to meet up with Jaxon and JoJo, from the GreenHeartsandFingers website, and, together with Agent Jobs, for safety, we headed into a mutual friend’s house. We discovered, after much testing, that springtails could probably enter a house via an open door, or an unlatched window, disguised as invisible smoke, riding a pet or hiding in a potted plant. They would be attracted by the cool dark interior in which to breed and lay their eggs. Both adult bugs and their larvae were able to bite, Agent Jobs told us, and Jaxon agreed. “They can take down a horse'“, he nodded.
"Though gardens are way worse than houses for bites, a huge, the worst, really a lot of swarms there, this time of year. I have some gloves and activated crystalline water in our Summer Sale, if you’re interested…?”
Agent Jobs strongly insisted that houses were way worse, and not to worry about gardens, and repeated how using pesticides had worked wonders on the springtail-infested carpets and that Pestaway Kwik had a special offer on a pesticide mix at the moment. “Illegal in twenty countries, so you know it really works,” he said proudly.
We wandered outside, where Agent Jobs kept trying to push Jaxom into the roses when he thought we weren’t watching.
As we walked, we learned from Jaxom and JoJo that drenching the garden’s soil with activated crystalline water was the best, although expensive and was the only way to properly remove springtails, with the added bonus of removing ‘bad’ energy and weeds. Interesting and useful stuff, if we had gardens ourselves.

Morgellons
But we needed to get serious now. We returned to the house and sat at the kitchen table after Agent Jobs had performed a precautionary pesticide misting and listened quietly as JoJo told us about the worst thing of all that springtails are capable of. It was an incredibly shocking and moving story.
She had herself experienced a highly personal and intimate infestation by springtails.
Together with JoJo’s testimony and research later on a website to validate her story, here are some of the shocking details.
The springtails had burrowed and nested under her skin, although only she could see them.
Her scritchy scratchy skin was really itchy.
Her belief-based diagnosis was only finally made official when doctors had refused to believe her.
She thanked Jesus Christ personally for the internet search engine that helped her decide her diagnosis.
She told us that the invisible springtails were often gathered around her open sores and lesions, which is how they got inside. The scratched wounds were also full of clothes fibers that had grown from the fungal spores and bacteria the springtails carry. This then provides food for the springtail pest.
She finally rid herself of the pest through the power of Christ and daily activated crystalline water baths.
We were contacted by JoJo again recently, as we were finishing this article, sponsored by Pestaway Kwik™, She told us that wearing a mask had brought the springtails back, this time to live in her mouth and nose. “I just knew it would happen. It was like putting a hat on a molehill.”
She did send us two pictures. The first, towards the top of the article, and this one, a photo of fibers taken from her skin. For transparency, we need to mention that she has used digital enhancing software in both, to bring out the definition of the insect.

TRUTH TIME.
So, yes. All these things about springtails have been said on line by someone, or a company made up of someones, especially in the US, all pushing something on a website. And it’s getting more common and much, much worse. Hence this much edited blog post. Here is the real truth.
Springtails do eat a lot of fungal stuff and can occasionally enter people’s homes, but they need a reason, like a very damp environment to survive. Maybe a pipe under the sink has been leaking, or a wall with rising damp. Sort out the damp problem and the springtails go away.
Springtails don’t have larvae, they can’t bite or sting and they’re not bugs or insects and hardly ever pests. They’re wonderful in every way. And they’re about as multi-coloured as you could get. Mites are awesome too, almost as great as springtails and aren’t insects either…
Both are an essential part of a healthy soil and environment.
Pest control companies just want to make money and many carefully use incendiary words, bad information and scare tactics to sell their services and products. Ditto for many ill-informed gardening websites, recommending the poisoning and wholesale removal of springtails and soil mites from gardens and plant pots.
Hire a builder or plumber instead and leave your awesome soil animals alone. What’s wrong with you?
The same misinformation is promoted and parroted as fact on Morgellons websites as it is with the pest control companies and and gardening websites. It’s just not true. To repeat-- springtails don’t have larvae, they can’t bite, sting or burrow into the skin and they’re not bugs or insects and hardly ever pests as they’re too adorable. Springtails are not responsible for your pain…
Wear a damn mask.
Thanks.
