Some pet stores sell pinhead crickets and or vials of flightless fruitflies. I don't have jumping spiders but i would think either would work. You just might have more food than you need although i think that ff are supposed to last 5 weeks , while you can feed and water the pinheads to let them last and grow.

Thanks I went to PetSmart and the fruit flies looked a little small so I’ll have to try pinheads or something fly like

Mine do just fine on small crickets and the larger species of flightless fruit flies

I use the Hydei fruit flies for my little guys. I order mine online. One culture can last quite a while. If you do get a fruit fly culture (I like getting the freshly started cultures when I can), just make sure you place the culture in the fridge for a few minutes to make it easier to feed. It's easier to get the flies where I need them when they're too cold to swarm the top lol. You just have to be quick to get everyone fed before they warm up.
