  After living in an extended stay motel with my boyfriend and dog we began to have the telltale signs of bird mites. We had never even heard of them. After complaining to management they would come and spray monthly. But my dogs and my symptoms got worse and worse. They were in my genitals, ears, nose, mouth, eyes, and throat. We were finally able to move into an apartment and we left everything except for the clothes kept in vacuum-sealed bags, a TV, and a computer doused in 91% alcohol. The apartment we moved to now has mites probably from my dog and I. My chest hurts. I’ve been vomiting and coughing up mites. I have a bad headache from them going way up in my ears and sinuses. I don’t leave home anymore. Tomorrow we sign the lease. I’m afraid to tell the owner, we can’t afford anywhere else. We used all our money trying to unsuccessfully get rid of these terrible parasites.
  
  I want to take legal action against the owner of the motel. I have not been to any doctor yet out of shame and fear of being called crazy or dirty. Has anyone ever successfully sued the people who caused a bird mite infestation? For the 1st time today, I woke up feeling like I might really die from this infestation.

  I think that would be a difficult case to win. You have not been to a doctor, so how can you prove you have an infestation? How can you prove it came from the motel?

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.
