It is not exactly a literary theme, but I know that several Litneters live or have lived in environments with birds and may have had this problem.
Iīm having this problem for several months and can not get rid of it. The culprits are invisible, but they bite. The biting in
itself is not the problem. It doesnīt itch very much and doesnīt leave any marks. The problem is, that on the contrary of insects, they relish human presence. They are always where one is. They get into the hair, the clothes, the face, eyes, ears, mouth and they resist even extermination. And they are attracted to the luminous pages of open PCs.
As I live in an area with many birds, specially urban doves, I concluded after much research specially in American pages that they are bird mites.
Remedies I have tried with small or no success: tea three oil, mixture of vinegar and alcohol, sodium bicarbonate diluted in vinegar, clove solution with alcohol, tobacco diluted in vinegar, several kinds of disinfectants.
If any one could help with suggestions I would be very grateful.
