Types of Mites We Control

Dust Mites

Dust mites are microscopic pests that thrive in homes, particularly in bedding, carpets, and upholstered furniture. Although they do not bite, dust mites are a common trigger for allergies and asthma, as their droppings can become airborne and easily inhaled.

Why Dust Mites Infest Homes: Dust mites feed on dead skin cells shed by humans and pets, making homes with high humidity and plenty of dust ideal for their survival.
Signs of a Dust Mite Infestation: Although dust mites are too small to see with the naked eye, allergic reactions such as sneezing, coughing, watery eyes, and itchy skin can indicate their presence.

Bird Mites

Bird mites are tiny parasitic pests that feed on birds but can also bite humans if they lose access to their bird hosts. They are often found in homes with birds, or near bird nests in attics, roofs, or walls.

Why Bird Mites Infest Homes: Bird mites enter homes when their bird hosts leave or die. They are drawn to nesting sites, particularly in attics or walls, and will move indoors in search of a new host.
Signs of a Bird Mite Infestation: Bird mites cause itching, skin irritation, and redness after biting. You may also see tiny, moving specks on bedding or furniture.

Clover Mites

Clover mites are small red mites that are harmless to humans but can become a nuisance in large numbers. They often invade homes in the spring and fall, especially around windows, walls, and outdoor areas with lush vegetation.

Why Clover Mites Infest Homes: Clover mites feed on grass, clover, and other outdoor vegetation. When their food source dwindles or the weather changes, they move indoors through cracks and gaps in windows or doors.
Signs of a Clover Mite Infestation: Clover mites leave red stains when crushed, which can appear on walls, windowsills, and furniture.

Our Mite Control Process

Inspection: We begin with a thorough inspection of your home or business to identify the type of mites present and locate the source of the infestation. This includes checking bedding, carpets, pet areas, bird nests, and any cracks or crevices where mites may hide.
Targeted Treatment: Based on the type of mites infesting your property, we apply safe and targeted treatments to eliminate the pests. For dust mites, we focus on areas where mites thrive, such as mattresses, carpets, and upholstered furniture. For bird or clover mites, we treat entry points and areas around nesting sites.
Sanitation & Cleaning: Since mites often thrive in dusty or humid environments, we provide recommendations for reducing mite populations through regular cleaning, reducing indoor humidity, and removing sources of food and moisture for mites.
Preventive Measures: To prevent future mite infestations, we offer tips on improving ventilation, reducing clutter, and sealing cracks or gaps that mites can use to enter your home. For bird mites, we advise on removing bird nests and keeping outdoor areas free of nesting sites.

Why Do Mites Infest Homes?

Mites are attracted to homes for several reasons, including the availability of food, humidity, and entry points. Here are some common factors that lead to mite infestations:

Food Sources: Dust mites feed on dead skin cells, bird mites feed on birds, and clover mites feed on plants and vegetation.
High Humidity: Dust mites thrive in humid environments where moisture is readily available, such as in bedding, carpets, and upholstered furniture.
Bird Nests: Bird mites are often found in homes where bird nests are located in attics, roofs, or near windows.
Outdoor Vegetation: Clover mites are drawn to lush vegetation near homes and can enter through cracks in windows or doors.

Preventing Future Mite Infestations

To keep mites out of your home or business, we recommend the following preventive measures:

Regular Cleaning: Regularly wash bedding, vacuum carpets and furniture, and reduce dust accumulation throughout your home.
Control Humidity: Use dehumidifiers or air conditioners to reduce indoor humidity, which can limit dust mite populations.
Seal Entry Points: Seal cracks and gaps around windows, doors, and foundations to prevent mites, especially bird and clover mites, from entering your home.
Remove Bird Nests: If bird mites are the issue, remove bird nests from attics, roofs, or walls to stop the infestation at its source.
