Need help finding arid springtails

[Twistedbydesign]

I’m starting a Bioactive enclosure for our Leopard Gecko which will be arriving in a couple weeks and am having a hard time finding arid springtails. Most people seem to have temperate or tropical. Does anyone have any recommendations.

I don't know that arid springtails exist. When I had a leopard gecko bioactive environment, I used dermestid beetles which do fine in an arid environment.

The Bio Dude sells them but wont have any available until Spring. I’ve seen others list them in a mixed culture of arid, temperate, and tropical which may be the route I need to go at the moment.
