Insects in a dart frog vivarium are generally nothing to worry about, and are often food items for the frogs. You are probably seeing springtails, and/or fungus gnats, and perhaps even rollie-pollies. They are normal inhabitants of a healthy vivarium, and you have no reason to tear down a vivarium over them. I actually welcome them in my vivs. The only thing I would worry about would be centipedes and large spiders. The spiders are easy enough to deal with, just remove them, but centipedes are a little trickier.
Good luck
