Unknown bug found in bed

Saint Paul, MN

I have found about 5 or 6 of these in my bed over the last two nights. I don't think they are bedbugs. They are incredibly small, tinier than an ant. Six legs (I think), long antennae, and jump when they touch my finger. They appear to be grey or tan with a black stripe/segment towards the rear. Possibly young hatchlings of some kind?

These are springtails (order Collembola) - harmless nuisance pests...
