Types of Mites

Mites are tiny arthropods that belong to the arachnid family, closely related to ticks and spiders. Although most are microscopic, their presence can cause significant irritation, damage, or health concerns depending on the type. Here are some of the most common types of mites found in and around homes:

  1. Dust Mites
    These mites thrive in bedding, carpets, and upholstered furniture. While they don’t bite, their waste and body fragments can trigger allergies and asthma in sensitive individuals.

  2. Clover Mites
    Often seen crawling near windows and walls, clover mites are small, reddish-brown pests that feed on grass and plants. They’re harmless to humans but can become a nuisance when they invade homes in large numbers.

  3. Bird Mites
    These blood-feeding mites infest birds and their nests, but when birds leave, the mites may seek new hosts—often invading homes. Their bites can cause itching and irritation.

  4. Spider Mites
    A common garden pest, spider mites feed on plant sap and can damage houseplants, shrubs, and crops. They’re typically found on the underside of leaves.

  5. Scabies Mites
    These mites burrow into human skin and lay eggs, causing intense itching and a rash. Scabies infestations require medical treatment and prompt cleaning of affected areas.

  6. Chigger Mites
    Found in grassy or wooded areas, chiggers are the larval stage of a type of mite that feeds on skin cells, leaving behind itchy, red welts.

While not all mites are harmful, their presence can be unsettling or uncomfortable. Proper identification is essential for effective treatment and prevention.

4. Source Elimination
We don't just treat the symptoms—we eliminate the root causes. This may include removing bird nests, sealing entry points, or recommending environmental modifications like dehumidification or improved air filtration.
