A member asked:
Can bird mites stay on human skin a period of time even if away from the infested area? can you see them crawling on the skin?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See below: You can see them crawling but they are very tiny,no larger than the period at the end of this sentence. They bite but don't burrow into skin or draw blood from humans. They wash off easily.
