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 are prey to such birds for the food in their hot blood. These pests are introduced when there is presence of a vacated nest nearby. They can also be brought in by our pets like cats and dogs or even by rodents.

Once they enter the households, bird lice shouldn’t 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, you can still come across with bird mites from birds who are roosting nearby.

Here are some quick facts about these bird lice:

• Bird mites are almost microscopically tiny of at least 1mm long, however, they can easily be seen with trained naked eyes.
• Best called walking pepper flakes.
• They’re self-limiting pest that can live at least for seven days but they are fast breeders and they are capable of jumping from 1 host to another.
• These bugs’ mainly feed on blood from flying animals, by way of instance, pigeons, starlings, sparrows and even poultry.
• They affect poultry rapidly, killing ill, young and old birds
• Though they are not known to transmit diseases, their itch-induced 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 insect is simply 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 an ac unit.

Where are they found?

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

These small bugs move into living spaces searching for blood meals. They can enter your front room, getting on the dividers, roofs and sneaking 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.
