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

Have you ever experienced unexpected itches and bites at your home or at someone’s residence and not knowing what’s taking place? You may be bitten by bird lice.

Once they enter into the households, bird lice shouldn’t be taken lightly. They are capable of biting and feeding on a human host and causing annoying itch. Even if you do not have pets, you can still encounter with bird mites from birds that are roosting nearby.

Here are some quick facts about these bird lice:

• At under 1 mm long, bird mites/lice are extremely little, however, they can be readily seen with a naked eye.
• When they crawl on light colored surfaces, they are best described as walking pepper flakes.
• They have a short life cycle of 7 days but they’re effective at rapid reproduction to infest a host.
• These pests’ diet is purely blood and they feed on birds such as pigeons, starlings, sparrows and even poultry.
• They affect poultry rapidly, killing ill, young and old birds
• They do not transmit illnesses yet their bite can cause secondary infections because of scratching.

Although they are self-limiting and can rarely survive if they host on humans, the chance of people getting in contact with the pest is just fair. You can experience bird mite infestation if there are roosting birds nearby and are building their nests on trees, roof tops, window ledges and even an ac unit.

Where are they found?

Bird mites love moist or humid conditions and they’re extremely active during the spring and summer seasons and are naturally found where birds and their nests can be found.

When spring and summer come, they’re very active and are voraciously preying on birds.

Bird mites can be connected with human beings when birds leave their nests and these pests are left without a host to feed on.
