I need springtails and I've found some under a bag of old roof tiles in my yard (this is the only place and it's super weird to me) but I can't separate them from the soil once I scoop it up. I've tried putting it in a jar and filling it with water but I can't skim them off the top since a bunch of other stuff floats too. I would love suggestions on how to separate them or trap them.

Thanks.
