What do Bird Lice look like?

What are bird lice and what you need to do

The first question that strikes anyone is, what are bird lice? These are minuscule insects (about 1 mm long) with hairy backs and eight legs. They have an oval shape and white or grayish bodies that turn reddish after feeding. Like all other pests, they are nocturnal (active at night) and burrow during the day.

Bird lice, also known as bird louse or bird mites, live and breed on various birds and their nests. As soon as the birds leave their nest, they enter homes and commercial spaces in search of food. Moreover, their diminutive size and non-jumping nature make them masked and difficult to spot.

Usually, bird lice enter residential and commercial spaces in large numbers and rest on cotton and fabrics, as they’re perfect for egg insulation. However, although they’re present in large numbers, they are highly unnoticeable. As a result, they cause pinprick bites, lesions, itching, swelling, and a worrisome crawling sensation.

We found Pest Managers such a pleasure to deal with - their efficient office staff and their excellent field staff who were thorough, knowledgeable and so pleasant and helpful. Dealing with a wandering rat who was making life very difficult for one of our flat residents, their staff were kind, helpful and offered an ingenious solution, going beyond what was expected of them! Thank you so much - we can recommend them most heartily!~ Alison, Kenilworth

Unfortunately, when our new house in Riebeek Kasteel was completed three years ago the contractor failed to completely close the roof edges. In the interim period, starlings have seized the opportunity to nest to the point that it was no longer acceptable. I contacted Pest Managers who spent time understanding our problem and how best to deal with it. Adriaan, Albert, and Trevor turned up yesterday to undertake their recommended action and I can honestly say what they installed has been an enormous success to the frustration of the starlings! What I loved about Adriaan and his team is that they clearly explained what they were going to install and how it would last over time (UV coated mesh etc). They were extremely professional and terribly helpful when we had questions during the course of the installation. As a family business, I definitely would recommend Adriaan and his team over bigger "brands" as the fact is each of them knew exactly what needed to be done and did it professionally - you can't say that about the big boys who employ everyone and anyone just to make some money and don't care about the solution they implement. I've already recommended Pest Managers and will continue to do so as they really are the best when it comes to resolving pest issues we all face. So thank you Adriaan, Albert, and Trevor and everyone else at Pest Managers as you really are the best....and of course good riddance to the starlings! Simon and Cherie

We had endless problems of Ants for years and have tried every single product and service possible, but to no avail, until we were referred to Phillip from Pest Managers who only did one treatment. They spent a few hours around the house and literally now a year later, I have not seen 1 ant. This is really the Best choice that I've made ever.

Pest Managers did an excellent job taking care of our Ant pest control problem. Their efficiency, effectiveness, and timeliness were top notch. The granule bait they used was taken immediately by the ants and three months later, they haven't returned! They were friendly, knowledgeable, and I felt like I got professional pest control service. Clicked on Pest Managers when searching for Pest Control Cape Town, contacted them and received the friendliest service agent. Within 24 hours of making the booking, the guys were at our site for an inspection and treatment! It was a pleasure to work with such a well-organized company. Excellent service at an affordable price! I would like to thank you for the excellent service you provided.
