Mite Treatment in London — Bird Mites and More

Signs you have mites

Mites are tiny, often barely visible; signs include small red or beige specks moving on window sills, walls or bedding, and itchy bites with no visible insect.

• Tiny red specks crawling on window sills (clover mites).
• Very small moving dots near a bird nest, vent or loft (bird mites).
• Itchy bites without a visible cause.
• Dusty patches in stored food (flour mites).

Why mites are a problem

Most mites are a nuisance rather than a health risk, but bird mites can bite people when their host birds leave the nest.

• Bird mites bite and cause itching.
• Flour mites spoil stored food.
• Dust mites can worsen allergies.
