Colony Cyphoderus albinus

Has anyone here tried to integrate a colony of Cyphoderus albinus into their ant colony before?

"These small invertebrates (Collembola) live in ant hills. They are commensals Myrmecophilous. They are very useful for Ants cleaning waste (droppings, mold, bacteria, mosses, etc..) That ants do not always come on time.
This species can be integrated directly into all the colonies, populated or not, they copy the smell of the colony in a few seconds and are not attacked by the ants."


That's what I've seen and was wondering if they are any good?
