Weight/Mass=Impact Speed - W/M=IS
Their weight=pretty much nil
Their mass=minuscule
W/M=IS=practically very little
Hence no massive impact speed no massive damage or any damage at all

They aren't very massive, so they don't crush themselves after falling. Their weight doesn't press down on their organs or their limbs as much when they fall. When a human falls from a height and say their leg was under them the weight of their body and the velocity of the fall would be to much for the leg to bear.

F=ma
Force=mass X acceleration
So, the do not build up to the force needed to squish them with their minimal mass.

drop a penny and a piece of paper.
the paper - and most bugs are light enough to get some wind resistance going.

They are pretty light creatures fortified by hard cuticle.
