      Thank God for this website. I have some tools and realize I am not alone. I had 2 pest control companies come and today Orkin told me basically I was a nut job. My physician sees the hundreds of bites and basically has told me to get out of the house.

      There is no one that believes me. I had 4 chickens and walked into the coop. That was when my nightmare began 8 months ago.

      At least this website lets me know I am not alone.

      Frustrating being alone!! How does one divorce their entire existence. Seems in my area there are crawlies on products in the stores. Like paper goods. There should be a hotline for people to meet and mental support. Maybe one exists. I don’t know.

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.
