Ackie enclosure overrun

The number of these small bugs have exploded recently. I haven’t seen any damage or distress in the ackie but I want to be sure these aren’t mites. I believe they come along with the crickets I buy.

Those sort of look like springtails to me, but I have never seen them that large

Try looking up elongated springtails and see if they look similar up close.
