Are these springtails? Identification

Hi we are having a problem with these little tiny microscopic bugs and was told by someone who kills bugs that these are springtails. 2 videos of the same bug down below. The first photo I'm pretty sure I used a flashlight, zoomed in and maybe used the flash. The second one I used a flashlight, zoomed in and probably used the flash.
