I had to google springtail to see what it was. Apparently, it's considered a nuisance--not because it bites, stings, or damages anything in your house, but merely because people don't want to see it. If it eats mold, I feel like it should be honored and not hated. Poor little, misunderstood bug.

[@CormacHolland]

@mattnar3865 correct! Collembolans, or “springtails,” are the primitive Apterygote (wingless) insect-like organisms.

[@pixiethebug]

I agree! Since it doesn't do any harm to us and does a lot of good, I feel like we should appreciate it more. Besides, I kind of like its coloring!

I LOVE BOB SO MUCH!!!!!!! I looove mantids! Where I live, we only have two species and they're just very plain green mantids, but I catch one or two every year at the end of the season. I wait until they have most likely mated already, and it's starting to get too cold for them to live in the wild much longer. That way I'm not too worried about messing up the ecosystem, and I get to watch some elderly mantids live out the rest of their days in peace vuv Sadly, they only live for a couple of months if you catch them that late in the year, but hey. It's a good couple of months for the old fuckers

[@HomemadeEcosystems]

That is awesome! In my country there isn't even 1 species in the wild unfortunatly

[@DrMalsyn]

Be the change you want to be in the world. (Do not actually release mantids into the wild.)

[@neskey]

Since the mantis kicked the fly, the football edit was spot on 👍 It's okay, I have the attention span of a fruitfly 🪰

[@backwards7]

A mantis that looks like some dead leaves, whose flycatching technique is a trade secret that is considered too hot for KZbin. A large beetle whose back markings perfectly imitate a KZbin silver creator award, which it uses to ensnare likes. The natural kingdom is filled with wonders and pieces of bark.

I've not lived, or even been in Belgium for years, but I do remember many nights that started with a joyous "ééntje is geentje", only to turn in to blurry, scattered memories, and ending in me waking up the next day (way too late) with unexplained bruises and a splitting headache. Perhaps my mistake was that I never had any rocks on me at the time

Bob's got some awesome creepy ninja moves. 🖤 Never thought I'd find a mantis "cute",... but here we go. My views on bugs have changed a lot since i started to collect dead ones. Now i love pinning them myself. And i also can't seem to unalive them anymore. Mosquitoes, ticks and other human-bloodsucking f*ckers are fair game though. How is adorable spider Bob doing? 😍 Thanks for the delightful video. Did miss the bubble wrap. 🤔 Have a nice weekend! 🖤🤘

[@UnderASwiftSunrise]

[@JamesFromTexas]

Another great video! Love to see your channel grow!

[@ollieworth7341]

i really like the vibes here:) I feel like i could listen for hours while you fill the ground with moss. i really like moss, am not great at growing it somehow (except in a single place we'll get there) and i used to tend to the big patches in my yard as a kid and nothing made me happier than to sit in the dirt with a lil notebook, draw the moss i saw, and name it. once i got a little older, i would ask the adults at school is they could write the "fancy name for my moss", and the gym teacher used to spend time learning about moss so he could teach me things about it and tell me scientific names. recently i've set up lots of plants in my room, got sad and yknow how it is. i have a silver pothos with some pink polka-dots in a lil fishbowl because it fit perfectly on my window, the glass is covered of course but i like to see the roots, which through the year its getting pretty root bound. the polka-dots have taken off like CRAZY to the point where they're propagating with almost all of my other plants, and one of them even fell over and started rooting in a neighbouring pot like a strawberry vine hehe but most shockingly, this lil fishbowl has become superior at growing moss. maybe i overwatered once? but the entire surface, my lil rocks, my cool piece of wood that my pothos used to grow on, is now thick and tall moss that i cant identify! looks nothing like most of my native mosses. like mini grass but each little strand is super super tiny. its even started popping up under the soil where my cover is getting thinner. your terrariums are gorgeous, and little mantis friend looks super happy! ive seen your channel a few times, and im sad i haven't subbed until now, your content is a genuine joy to watch:) cant wait for the next upload!

[@HomemadeEcosystems]

Yeah moss can be hard to grow sometimes so it is indeed super cool to watch it pop up out of nowhere! Glad you like the videos!
