      We have been fighting some type of mite for going on 9/10 months now & have spread it through 3 households. Only animal in common is rodents, although we pretty sure it started with bird mites when our roof was removed. My dogs & myself seems to be hosts as everywhere we go we take these horrible things with us. My legs swell from them & I think they are starting to affected my overall health. We have tried everything & are about to give it all one more go to try & rid our house, my parents house, plus all pets of them. It’s exhausting & heartbreaking to see my 1yr old daughter affected.

      Thank you for your website it’s been the only place I’ve found much helpful info. Would love to know how anyone rid them from their pets?

Recommended Treatment Provider

We recommend you use a licensed professional to address a bird mite problem. Don’t wait or the problem will get much worse and more expensive to treat. We have a list of pest control companies that are specifically qualified to treat bird mites.

  • They come to your house for no charge and give a free estimate.
  • Even if you decide not to use them, you get free professional advice.
  • Most pest control companies have never dealt with bird mites before. You need to use a bird mite specialist.

Follow this link to find a Qualified Local Exterminator near you.

Keep in mind that if bird mites are not treated correctly, even if the correct chemicals are used, they can become resistant to those chemicals. Don’t use a pest control company unless they have extensive experience treating bird mites.

Also, many of our readers have followed up with (or used outright) natural solutions and pesticide-free, such as on our Treatments Protocols page Follow this link to that page.

Natural and DIY Solutions

In addition to local exterminators, we offer a list of other natural, non-pesticide and/or do-it-yourself products that we have found helpful on our Treatments Protocol page.  Follow this link to the Treatments Protocols page.
