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

It is fond to see birds flying around our home much more when we spot a nest up on the trees. However, their presence can bring trouble due to one creature that nestles with them. Bird lice or bird mites are tiny creatures that 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 when there is existence of a vacated nest nearby. They can also be caused by our pets such as cats and dogs or even by rodents.

These tiny creatures are capable of giving their host itch-inducing bites and they are voracious blood eaters. These pests can be introduced at home when there’s vacated nest nearby or when rodents and pets live within the region. Hence, their presence shouldn’t be taken lightly and eliminating them requires professional assistance from pest control experts.

• At less than 1 mm long, bird mites/lice are extremely small, however, they are readily seen with a naked eye.
• They’re like walking pepper flakes when they crawl on light colored surfaces.
• Their life span is short, about 7 days but they are fast breeders that they can immediately infest a host.
• These pests’ diet is purely blood and they feed on birds such as pigeons, starlings, sparrows and even poultry.
• They affect poultry quickly, killing ill, young and old birds
