    Yes, they could equally be psocids.  Just like collembola, they are probably as happy feeding on starchy detritus rather than needing moulds or fungi.  The solution is the same, though... cleaning, cleaning, cleaning!  :)
  • That's fine, thank you. I'll just keep cleaning then. I wipe them with Dettol wipes as I see them anyway so hopefully they'll just become extinct.

    Or at least they will be shiny clean bugs!
