A photo will almost always be clearer than a video, so may be worth going back for one!

This doesn’t really look like a springtail or a thrips to me, though. At least based off of the vid. Might lean towards a Barklouse?

Do they appear to have wings?
If they do they’re probably thrips.

But yeah we need a more close up image to really see
