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

Have you ever experienced a sudden itch when you are enjoying free time outdoors? If so, you might be bitten by bird lice. Bird lice or bird mites as what others call it is preys which are naturally found in birds. They usually are present when birds vacate their nest. Though birds are their hosts, they can jump to feed on other animals such as rodents, cats and dogs and have the option to feed on humans also. However, these pests are self-limiting as they can only live for a short period of time.

Once they enter the households, bird lice should not 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 come across with bird mites from birds who are roosting nearby.

Here are a few quick data about these bird lice:

• Bird mites are almost microscopically tiny of 1mm long, however, they can easily be seen with trained naked eyes.
• They are like walking pepper flakes when they crawl on light colored surfaces.
• They are self-limiting pest that can live at least for seven days but they are fast breeders and they are capable of jumping from one host to another.
• These bugs’ mainly feed on blood from flying animals, by way of instance, pigeons, starlings, sparrows as well as poultry.
• They may be small but they are terrible for they can make a complete poultry sick most especially young and old birds.
• They don’t transmit illnesses yet their sting can cause secondary infections due to scratching.

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