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

It’s 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 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 caused by our pets like dogs and cats or even by rodents.

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