Location: New York. Found these in bathroom... very small insects which seem to be multiplying rapidly... a dozen or so around. This one is one of the largest ones at less than 1/8 inches but most are like specks 1/16 or less. They sometimes move fairly quick but then stop again. They are very dark brown or black. This is next to a grout line on the floor (I used a magnifying glass with the camera). I think this guy had a damaged antennae, the other smaller ones seem to have both antennae the same size. They have a soft body easily mushed. Some seem to jump. Wondering if its this... springtails

Any idea what they are and the best way to eradicate ? We washed everything and mopped once with bleach but they are back the next day.
