Bird Mite Panic

Bird mites become a nightmare when home owners find a bird nest in a vent or under an air conditioner and they remove it, only to find these tiny bird mites all over that suddenly start biting anything in their path. In a previous post of mine entitled, what else, Bird Mites, there is a link at the end of the post that gives a level headed insight into the bird mite and shows us that although pesky, can be controlled without bombing your house with fumigants. Some have asked about products that can be bought to help in the crusade in getting rid of them. Sterifab would be a good product that you can find at an online pest control products store and a professional product that is sold is Talstar that is a miticide on the label. If you think you need to spray I would recommend calling a professional. Mixing and using professional chemicals can be dangerous and caution always must be used. Having said all this, you can rest assured, bird mites can be controlled and eliminated by using your head and not your heart.

We have found that success is impacted greatly by the length of time since the original infestation, with more and more psychological effects setting in as time goes by. WWW.birdmites.org and www.morgellons.org has some very interesting information about bird mites. Some real, some parasitosis and I think some of what started as a real infestation but grew into parsitosis.

If you check out our website (www.heartspm.com), you can find a great deal of information on our mites and parasite page. You can also follow 4 links that represent a medical research paper on bird mites that was written by a client of ours.

Clearly, you may have scientific knowledge - but your home has not been infested! I have been dealing with bird mites for almost two years, doing EVERYTHING I have read or heard to do. They are worse than ever and it's an extremely crazy-making situation. You almost sound light hearted about it - which makes sufferers feel even crazier.

An air purifier with a 254nm UVC lamp will kill bird mites.

Put one in each room that is infected. Problem solved.
