  So my neighbor starts feeding the birds variety bird food. I realize I’m scratching more. Did not connect it. heard noises from unseen bugs on wall. Thought I had bird mites. Things jumped on me from flooring. No sign of fleas. Realized may be from bird food itself. From cracking open of sunflower seeds. Looking on web people sunflower seeds are processed. Something like roasted or dried out. So that would kill any bugs or bio insecticide surviving. I guess bird seed not. Got creepy crawlies and at night see jumping dander in front of camera light off clothing and bedding. I’m just delusional. Vacuum and wash daily. They multiply faster if too long in dryer. Heat not killing them. Madness stress told in my head. But I feel them crawl especially night. Some one please stop the madness. Thankful for helpful sites and people’s fight of the mighty mites.
