Knocking Down Tiny and Itch-inducing Bird Lice (Bird Mite)

Have you ever experienced sudden itches and bites at your house or at a person’s humble abode and not knowing what is happening? You may be bitten by bird lice.

These tiny creatures are capable of giving their host itch-inducing snacks and they are voracious blood eaters. These pests can be introduced at home when there is vacated nest nearby or when pets and rodents live inside the area. Hence, their presence shouldn’t be taken lightly and eliminating them requires professional help from pest control experts.

Here are some quick facts about these bird lice:

• At less than 1 mm long, bird mites/lice are very small, but they can be easily seen with a naked eye.
• Best called walking pepper flakes.
• They have a short life cycle of 7 days but they are capable of quick reproduction to infest a host.
• They enjoy blood meal so much and they like to host on warm-blooded animals like birds, rodents, cats and dogs.
• They impact poultry quickly, killing sick, young and old birds.
• They bite that results to annoying itchiness. They may not transmit diseases but the scrape from their itchy bites can cause secondary infections and scarrings.

The prospect of bird mites to get in contact with humans is high if the birds are building nests on nearby trees near a home. Sometimes, there are also birds that do not nest on trees but are building their nests on roof tops, window ledges and even inside an air conditioner unit. So, be watchful if there are some.

Where are they found?

Bird mites are often nesting in vacated nest and they like to stay in moist and humid environment.

They are very active during the spring and summertime, where they prey on bird host. They hop from one host to another in search of a blood meal. They can enter the household or any building if they happen to prey on animals such as rodents, cats and dogs as their hosts.

These creatures also love to crawl and can enter the living rooms, climb on walls, ceilings and lurk in the bed.
