      Hi folks,

      Back on here after over a month of no bites. My dad just discovered some bites on his body after not having them for a few months now. Trying to keep the faith!

      Was just wondering something — do you guys find that you get bitten in the same/similar places time and time again? For me, it’s always my scalp or neck, and sometimes on my belly. For my dad it’s always around his belly. I wonder if there’s something that is left behind that they can detect?

      Just wanted to know if it’s the same with others. We slather those areas with Neem (and don’t really bother with the rest of our body), but maybe we should be?

      At my worst infestation I got 3 new bites in a 24 h period. Does this align with you guys are experiencing?

      I guess I’m just looking to read about some of your experiences with the frequency and repetitiveness of bites.

      Thanks guys – stay strong (deep breaths….)

      -J

      Yes mine’s my rib cage. And when I walk into one building it’s my eyes. I used to live there if I go in there my eyes get on slotted and my ears. To get them out of my ears I went to get ear drops for ear infection and it worked poly myson is what it was the spelling is not right , but the doctor knows what to give you for ear infections if he would give me something Polly meissen I would ask him for that and it would cure it. In the ears. For the skin benzoyl peroxide 2.5% by acne.org on Amazon for $20 use head to toe if needed no side effects I know of has no smell doesn’t burn doesn’t stink God bless you email me anytime at — doe1768@yahoo.com

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.
