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

It is fond to see birds flying around our house much longer when we place 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 which are naturally found in birds such as pigeons, starlings, sparrows and poultry. They are prey to such birds for the food on their hot blood. These pests are introduced if there is existence of a vacated nest nearby. They can also be brought in by our pets like dogs and cats or even by rodents.

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