Can anyone help identify these bugs in this soil?

Needed extra soil for a single pot so I bought some cheap soil today from my local Menards. These bugs were everywhere. Almost added it to my tent before I noticed them.


(Burpees organic potting mix)
 
Are they affecting your plants in anyway?
Diatomaceous Earth is great of sprinkling on the top layer of soil to combat pests that do such as: thrips, aphids, gnats etc.
Hopefully that’s not a destructive critter.

Literally just bought the soil today and noticed upwards of 10 of them burrowing through the soil as I was prepping the pots.
