    Bird Mites

    Hello! I recently discovered my 15 year old cockatiel has what I assume are bird mites. (I believe I have attached a zoomed in photo of them) There are a ton of tiny bugs all over her cage and I managed to spot one at the base of her tail. ): We cleaned the entire cage with a disinfectant (while she was out of it) and have tried a home remedy of spraying a mixture of vinegar and water on both the bird and cage. Within an hour they returned. I am hesitant to use a bird spray from the pet store because I've heard they're dangerous. What are your thoughts?

    Thank you for any help!!
