An Oregon resident reports tiny, skinny, 1/16-inch bugs swarming the exterior of the house, crawling on clothes and skin. They don't bite or fly, appear to hop, and are resistant to bug spray. Photos provided.
The expert suspects springtails based on the description (especially the hopping behavior). Springtails are common in garden soils, harmless, and do not require treatment. The recommendation is to simply wash them off with a spray of plain water.
For reference, see springtail close-up pictures.
