Hi guys, new here, 1st post, really enjoy my edible gardening at home, but have something ive never seen before, I have jalapeno chilis growing in a large pot outside in the garden, and this morning I noticed when I was watering them that there were literally hundreds/thousands of tiny bugs in the compost, as the water was running through the compost, the bugs were jumping all over the water, Ive never seen them before, and if I was to take a picture, you wouldnt even see them! They are about the size of a comma on your screen right now ( , ) actual size

Anyone any idea what they are/could be, are they harmful to my plant/garden in general, or are they beneficial.

Any help is appreciated, i`ve never seen them before

Cheers
