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

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

Once they enter the households, bird lice should not be taken lightly. They are capable of biting and feeding on an individual host and inducing 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 some quick facts about these bird lice:

  • At under 1 mm long, bird mites/lice are extremely little, however, they can be readily seen with a naked eye.
  • Best called walking pepper flakes.
  • 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 one host to another.
  • Their diet is purely blood. Though they are mostly found in birds, they can infest other warm-blooded animals such as rodents, dogs and cats.
  • They affect poultry rapidly, killing ill, young and old birds
  • Though they are not known to transmit diseases, their itch-induced bite can cause secondary infections because of scratching.

The prospect of bird mites to get in contact with people is high if the birds are building nests on nearby trees near a home. Sometimes, there are also birds that do not nest on trees but are building their nests on roof tops, window ledges and even within an air conditioner unit. So, be cautious if there are some.

Where are they found?

Bird mites love moist or humid conditions and they’re extremely lively during the spring and summer seasons and are normally seen in birds that nest near houses or surrounding areas.

When spring and summer come, they’re very busy and are voraciously preying on birds.

Bird mites can come in contact with humans when birds leave their nests and these pests are left without a host to feed on.

Spotting Bird Lice Infestation

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

To identify possible infestation, assess for nestings around:

  • Eaves and at chimneys
  • Rooftop spaces
  • Wall cavities
  • Storm cellars
  • Window sills
  • Porches

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

Controlling Bird Lice

Controlling bird lice on your own may be a hassle and inconvenient. You can’t save its spreading in your house through driving birds away, disposing of nests, cleaning cages or perhaps disinfecting the vicinity.

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.

Ben is an absolute gentleman. Extremely polite and courteous and was very thorough in his work. He even took the time to explain different aspects of his job and the various insects and how he gets rid of them. Absolute champion. Hoping this will be the start of a long relationship with Andrew and his Local Pest Control team. Cheers.

Extremely happy with the services provided, we had a very knowledgeable technician Sean came to attend to the possum issue in our townhouse, Sean found the openings where the possums came in on the roof right away and patched them up. When the previous pest control company failed to do. But being a two level building with a separated garage roof, it was very difficult to trap the possums still inside, but Andrew the boss and Sean kept trying and finally got the problem all solved. Friendly to talk to and easy to work with so Highly recommended.
