They're too small to post a picture, but there are lots of them. I have some seed flats growing in my closet, and whenever I lift up the flat, there are a bunch of small, white-gray mite-looking things jumping around in the catchment trays. They seem to like the moisture of the trays and dislike being in the light. For their size they sure can jump pretty far. They are definitely not fleas though. They are a bit smaller than fleas, and as I mentioned, are a different color. Also, they can't jump nearly as far as fleas.
Any ideas?
I have no idea what these little critters are!
