Springtail control

Hi, Can you guys suggest an insecticide to get rid of springtails. I’ve had my home sprayed three times but with limited success. My home is not damp and is very clean. John H. CBS, Nefoundland

 

Chemical applications (usually pyrethroids) generally are not recommended for springtail control, as the effect is only temporary and applications usually must be repeated.
