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

Have you experienced sudden itches and bites at your house or at someone’s humble abode and not knowing what is happening? You may be bitten by bird lice.

Bird lice (or bird mite) should not be dismissed. Even if you don’t have a pet bird in your home, you can still encounter these pests. They’re tiny creatures capable of biting humans and pets and causes annoying itch. It’s possible that your home and surroundings may have bird lice infestation when birds outside are roosting nearby.

Here are a few quick data about these bird lice:

• Their appearance are almost alike to ticks and human lice they’re quite little about 1mm long.
• Best called 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 pure blood and that they feed on birds such as pigeons, starlings, sparrows and fowl.
• They affect poultry quickly, killing ill, young and old birds
• They bite that results to annoying itchiness. They may not transmit diseases but the scrape from their itchy bites can cause secondary infections and scarrings.

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 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 even an ac unit.

Where are they found?

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

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

They hop from 1 host to another and they have higher chances of entering the household when they have the ability to host on rodents and pets. These creatures likes to crawl and can enter the living rooms, climb on walls, ceilings and lurk in the bedding.

Spotting Bird Lice Infestation

As mentioned earlier, bird lice infestation is quite crucial and requires proper identification. Since this pest is nearly looked like ticks and bed bugs, home owners usually find assistance from pest management professionals. The best approach that you can do though is exploring your area for presence of nest and then reporting it to the experts. However, ponder on this warning do not attempt to remove the nests yourself to avoid risk of bird mite transfer to other areas.

To spot possible infestation, check for nestings around:

• Eaves and in chimneys
• Rooftop spaces
• Wall cavities
• Basements
• Window ledges
• Porches

If there’s 1 DIY method you can do to prevent the infestation, that is installing high fences on your environment. The presence of high fences can block birds from entering your area and construct their nest. You can also start sealing and fixing roof cavities and other entry points that bird lice can crawl into.

Controlling bird lice on your own can be troublesome and frustrating. You cannot simply prevent its spreading in your property by essentially heading outside birds, expelling the nests, cleaning cages or even sterilising the area. You need the assistance of an expert to assess and run a treatment strategy to control and eliminate the infestation.

After evaluating the level of infestation, we will assist you in expelling settling substances, fixing entry points and employ required treatment to control the pests.
