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

It is fond to see birds flying around our house much more when we spot a nest up on the trees. However, their existence can bring trouble because of 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 are prey to these 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 brought in by our pets like cats and dogs or even by rodents.

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

Here are some quick facts about these bird lice:

  • Their appearance are nearly alike to ticks and human lice they’re quite little about 1mm long.
  • 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’re capable of jumping from one host to another.
  • These pests’ diet is pure blood and that they feed birds such as pigeons, starlings, sparrows and fowl.
  • They are small but they are terrible for they can make a whole poultry sick most notably young and old birds.
  • Though they are not known to transmit diseases, their itch-induced bite can cause secondary infections due to scratching.

Although they are self-limiting and can rarely survive if they host on humans, the possibility of people getting in contact with the insect is simply fair. 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 even an air conditioning unit.

I had Benjamin from Local Pest Control come to our place on Monday because I was worried we had a spider problem. He identified a major funnel web spider situation. Benjamin was so thorough and considerate because I was very scared having three small children. He went above and beyond to make sure he spent as much time as needed to treat every single spider hole in our yard. He has arranged to come back in 2 weeks time just to make sure we are all safe for the Christmas period. So grateful for all his help. Highly recommend!

Great company, friendly and knowledgeable staff, and awesome results. Called Andrew and let him know what we were seeing. Andrew was wonderful, helped me determine what type of creepy crawlers we had in our home and was able to get someone out really quick. Adam came out to treat our apartment for cockroaches and from start to finish I was super impressed. Adam was friendly, answered all my questions, and gave me some insight and tips to help with our problem. Local Pest Control is a reliable and effective company who I won’t hesitate to call again! Highly recommend.
