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

It’s fond to see birds flying around our house much longer when we spot a nest up on the trees. However, their presence can bring trouble because of one creature that nestles with them. Bird lice or bird mites are tiny creatures which are naturally found in birds such as pigeons, starlings, sparrows and poultry. They’re prey to such birds for the food in their hot blood. These pests are introduced if there is presence of a vacated nest nearby. They can also be brought in by our pets such as cats and dogs or even by rodents.

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

Here are a few quick data about these bird lice:

• At less than 1 mm lengthy, bird mites/lice are extremely small, but, they may be without difficulty observable with a naked eye.
• When they creep on light colored surfaces, they are best described as walking pepper flakes.
• They have a brief lifestyle cycle of seven days however they’re capable of quick propagation to infest a host.
• These pests’ diet is pure blood and that they feed on birds such as pigeons, starlings, sparrows and fowl.
• They impact poultry very quickly, killing sick, young and old birds.
• They do not transmit diseases but their bite can cause secondary infections due to scratching.

Although they’re self-limiting and can rarely survive if they host on humans, the chance of people getting in contact with the insect is simply fair. You can experience bird mite infestation if you will find roosting birds nearby and are building their nests on trees, roof tops, window ledges and an air conditioning unit.

Where are they found?

As above, bird mites are nesting in vacated bird’s nest and they like to stay in moist and humid environment.

These small creatures move into dwelling areas on the lookout for a blood meal. They could crawl into your living area, climb on the walls, ceilings and lurk in bedding.

Bird mites can come in contact with people when birds leave their nests and these pests are left without a host to feed on.
