Mites

Effective Mites Control Melbourne

Bird mites are insects from a family of mites that infest birds in warmer climes. There are about 45 000 species of bird mites that have been identified. Only a few species have been identified as parasitic on mammals, although they may be extremely harmful to their hosts. They used to dwell behind bird feathers, waiting for new blood to feed on. At Pest Free Nests, we provide excellent mites control Melbourne.

Mites are arachnids, not insects, like termites. Mites are linked to ticks and spiders, and scorpions to a lesser extent. Even by pest standards, mites are little. They are only about 1mm long. They may live on a variety of creatures, including rodents, insects, mammals, and even people.

Because there are so many distinct types of mite, pinpointing the particular problem can be difficult. Mites that attach themselves to bird eggs are fairly prevalent. Dust mites feed on human hair and skin that have died. While most mites are innocuous, parasitic mites can cause a variety of issues. Varroa destructor, for example, is a severe honey bee pest that contributes to colony collapse disorder in commercial hives. We provide mites control in all suburbs of Melbourne including Brighton, Camberwell and Glen Waverley.

Why should you opt for mites control services?

Dust mites do not bite or carry disease, but they do cause allergies. And this is crucial since asthma affects roughly two million Australians or about 10% of the population.

Allergic responses to scabies mites include extreme itching and threadlike markings in the hands, elbows, wrists, and genitals. Importantly, scabies infections cannot be detected in their early stages.

Humans are not infected by bird mites, often known as black mites. Humans, on the other hand, are bitten, which causes a prickling feeling and irritation, which can lead to rashes and itching. The bite sites can produce a secondary infection, even though they don’t transfer any infections to people. Therefore, bird mites control is necessary.

What are the problems associated with bird mites?

The parasite develops and adapts to varied surroundings throughout time, allowing it to latch on to other animals, including humans. This means it may easily move from its avian nest to human environments, and due to their small size, they are typically undetected unless they have found a host and left a severe bite mark.

If you live in an area where there is a lot of poultry or where there are bird nests, these parasites have a higher chance of getting into your house. These mites are difficult to detect, but if you are bitten by one, you will notice an unpleasant rash on your skin. We provide bird control Melbourne as well, which can also be helpful in keeping mites away.
