Thanks for the reply.
Yes, it could be springtails. I guess they come in many shapes and colors. Never seen these before. They seem to gather on the edge of the traps as you can see in the pictures I posted. And in quite large numbers all summer. The reason I suspected it might be some kind of mites is because my VFs have been growing many disformed/twisted traps and look a bit “sad” and pale. I have grown them under the same conditions for many years and they always look great this time of year.
I know that springtails are usually harmless, but could some species harm CPs?
