Health Risks

Birds, bird droppings and nesting materials can carry over 60 different diseases that can be passed to humans and animals. If dried bird droppings are found near air handling systems, they can travel through buildings potentially infecting you, your family and employees.

Bird Mite

Bird mite is a small but extremely mobile mite, barely visible to the eye. Bird mites are semi-transparent in colour, which makes them difficult to detect on skin until blood is ingested and then digested; when they may appear reddish to blackish.

Contact with humans usually occurs after birds gain entry to roof cavities of our homes and business to construct their nests, which normally occurs in early spring or summer. However, some infestations also occur from birds roosting on the outside of dwellings such as window ledges or awnings. The mites feed on the young, as well as the adult birds, and the large amount of nesting material used by the birds provides the mites with an ideal environment in which to thrive. The mites have a short life cycle, but can rapidly generate large populations.


The greatest impact on us from bird mites are usually experienced in rooms close to the point of entry of the mites. The mites have no preference for any particular areas of the body and they do not live underneath the skin, nor can an infestation be maintained on humans. However, the problem will persist while the bird-related source of the mites remain. Until the infestation is controlled, the occupants of the building can experience considerable discomfort. Also, the sensation of crawling mites on the skin will irritate some people.

Inventory Damage

Droppings can damage products and contaminate production lines. Birds can often be found nesting or perching on rafters and purlins in warehouses and storage facilities. Bird droppings present in such areas may affect your food safety audits.

Poor Image

Bird droppings and nests are an unattractive feature for homes and businesses. Birds on a ledge or sign, or droppings covering footpath or driveway look unsightly and do not portray a clean image.
