Ácaros rojos (Dermanyssus gallinae) [...] mide 0,6 mm de largo, son de forma ovoide y están aplanados dorso ventralmente. Poseen tres pares de patas en estado larval y cuatro pares en estado adulto. Sus hábitos de vida son muy similares al de la garrapata aviar, atacan a las aves durante la noche y se ocultan durante el día. Su color también es parecido, amarillento cuando está en ayunas y rojizo cuando se ha alimentado con la sangre del ave. Suele ocupar principalmente, el sector de la cloaca de las aves. Durante el día se ubica en las grietas, en las camas y en la paja de los nidos, lugares donde la hembra deposita sus huevos y después de 3 ó 4 días de incubación nacen las larvas. Su presencia se delata por sus excrementos que aparecen en perchas y posaderos, en forma de puntitos blancos y negros. 4, record 1, Spanish, - %C3%A1caro%20rojo%20de%20las%20gallinas
