Horrors!! I had a bird’s nest up over my front door back in Illinois, and I thought it was the neatest thing! One day I took a step ladder out and got up there to look and see how many eggs there were... and I saw that the whole thing was crawling with these mites. I was freaked. I got down quick and never went near it again.

The woman is 45. How much care does she need?

"They can be a nuisance and some people have been infected for years with these bird mites and have had difficulty eradicating them..."I feel exactly the same way about democrat party parasites.
Fumigate these vermin away!

OMG!!! How the heck do you know if you have them? How do they infest? Gee’s, the least they can do is give you some warning signs to look for and how to prevent it. Yes, I live on Long Island!!!
How did she get them in the first place???

Why the woman didn’t fumigate it herself is beyond me. I cannot understand why people don’t take matters into their own hands when their is an emergency. Why wait for the landlord to act? Do it yourself and them send a bill.

I think I’m going to have to put some lotion on. I’d rather be suffering from psychosomatic euphoria? Why does that never happen I ask. lol

I once slept in a lodge where I later found out a birds nest was in a nook on the outside wall. Well, the bird had recently died, and all of the bird’s mites were homeless. I itched, I scratched, and I mixed malathion with my shampoo and laundry soap.

“How do they infest? “
ALWAYS knock down bird nests anywhere on or adjacent to your house!!!
When I was a kid on a ranch in San Diego county, we got some swallows in our rafters. We thought that was so cute.
Next thing you know we had bed bugs. My older brother started knocking down the mud nests, and the critters covered the whole side of the house.
‘Course, back then, we just got out the DDT and got rid of them.
