Umm... not sure what you mean, but if it's the ones that flash red when you go near them, pick them up with your gravity gun and they will flash blue then green - setting them to explode on an enemy rather than you

You must use the gravity gun to pick them up. Simply hit the button and they'll all fall out of the tube and attack you. You only need one, which must be picked up with the gravgun's secondary fire. Then, bring the mine back to Alyx.

They are hoppers. Jo is talking about the Combine balls that zap things.
