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 warm blood. These pests are introduced if there is existence of a vacated nest nearby. They can also be caused by our pets such as dogs and cats 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 causing annoying itch. Even if you do not have pets, then you can still encounter 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 1mm long, however, they can easily be seen with trained naked eyes.
• When they crawl on light colored surfaces, they’re best described as 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, for example, pigeons, starlings, sparrows and even poultry.
• They can easily make a whole poultry sick most notably young and old birds.
• They do not transmit diseases however, their bite can cause secondary infections due to scratching.

The possibility of bird mites to get in contact with people is high if the birds are building nests on nearby trees near a house. Sometimes, there are also birds that do not nest on trees but are building their nests on roof tops, window ledges as well as within an air conditioner unit. So, be cautious if there are any.

Where are they found?

Bird mites love humid or moist conditions and they’re really dynamic during the spring and summer seasons and are normally seen in birds that nest near houses or surrounding areas.

These little bugs move into living spaces looking for blood meals. They can go into your front room, getting on the dividers, roofs and sneaking in bedding.

Bird mites can come in contact with humans when birds leave their nests and these pests are left with no host to feed on.
