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

It is fond to see birds flying around our house much more when we place a nest up on the trees. However, their existence 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 these birds for the food on their warm blood. These pests are introduced if there is presence of a vacated nest nearby. They can also be caused by our pets such as dogs and cats or even by rodents.

Bird lice (or bird mite) should not be taken gently. Even if you don’t have a pet bird, you could stumble upon these pests. They’re tiny creatures capable of biting humans and pets and induces stressful itch. It is viable your property and environment could have bird lice infestation whilst birds outside are roosting close by.

Here are some quick facts about these bird lice:

  • Their appearance are nearly alike to ticks and human lice they are quite small about 1mm long.
  • They’re like walking pepper flakes when they crawl on light colored surfaces.
  • They are self-limiting pest that can live at least for 7 days but they are fast breeders and they’re capable of jumping from 1 host to another.
  • They enjoy blood meal so much and they like to host on warm-blooded animals like birds, rodents, cats and dogs.
  • They are small but they are terrible for they can make a complete poultry sick most especially young and old birds.
  • They do not transmit diseases however, their bite can cause secondary infections due to scratching.

Although they’re 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 air conditioning unit.

Real Estate Property Manager. Prior to the introduction I had used other Companys who did not offer the same professional service I attained from Local Pest Control. No job was too small or too big and they were always contactable and were able to attend to the job quickly. The quality of their service and the work performed is second to none. I have used the Company for my own family needs as well and I will never again use another Company for my Pest Control needs.

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!
