      This causes me way more problems than eliminating them in the environment, because I have 3 different rooms I can sleep in. Apparently they have burrowed into me and a constant stream of them comes out of my scalp above my left brow. So no matter how carefully I treat a room and shower, I am usually covered with bugs in about two hours. This makes sleep nearly impossible now. Does anyone have any suggestions they can give me for this?

      I understand your situation. I’ve been dealing with bird mites for while. I was attacked clearing my decease dads house almost 2 years ago and it was a lot of hell at first. I can tell you some good advice but no silver bullet cure for now. The first thing is your diet. Eliminate sugars, dairy, caffeine, alcohol, fast/most can foods and meats except fish (no frying only baked). ): Yes I know. These mite things thrive off these foods/beverages mainly. I love coffee and suffer attack after drinking, have had to curtail intake. If you can’t eliminate, reduce and then reduce intake more. Our normal diets are a breeding ground for these parasites. Also treating rooms if infested is great but if they are burrowed in your skin taking showers only temporary relief, I know. Must attack them internally also with healthy diet and medicines. Look at the suggestions by others on this site. I can recommend Ivermectin paste, drinking lemon/vinegar water and taking antibiotics. I rub head and face with Vaseline/castor oil at night to hinder their movement. I don’t think one relief/cure fits all sufferers. These products have curbed my symptoms but not killed. But controlling my diet very helpful. I am much better than last year, very depressing still. Docs no help for me. Look on this forum and site for others remedies one may be silver bullet for you. I just saw a few more I’m going to try. I feel your pain.

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.

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.
