Re: Re: I saw a bird mite I think

[Guest guest]

I believe I saw one, it was stuck on a portrait with a dark black background - it was in a box for a few months. The skeleton showed up clearly. I took out my little 45X hand held microscope and it surely resembled what I saw of pictures online. Of course it was dead, but preserved in perfect form. I tried to carefully scrape it off to have it identified, but it fell apart then. It was light tan in color and the size of 1/32" like they say it should be. I wish I didn't try to scrape it off.

It's been awhile that I have seen any. They were black specs. One I cuaght it got crushed but turned orange by the time I got to pest control. He knew it was something he saw the legs.I suspect rodent because my mothers dog got them after going under my house then all 3 of her dogs got them. It was hell. I used to get bit over her house not anymore. My dogs got them but my cat did not. They would make clusters on dogs skin. Dogs are fine now.I have seen the lint balls too. I live on a horse farm so anything is possible. I believe the mites are pretty the same. From what I have read one lives host the other stays near. Well they were on me and everything else. I wish I would have saved mite and took to the local college. The bug man never specified what kind and he kept my sample. I still look for them. If I catch one of the suckers ill take a picture. The best luck I had was in the morning lookin on and under sheets. They look like they are gliding
