can skin cat mites live on humans
When separated from their insect prey, itch mites may contact and bite other animals including humans. The mites cannot be seen and the bites are not felt, but leave itchy red marks that can resemble a skin rash. When itch mite populations âexplode,â people and other animals may receive numerous bites. Fortunately, the mites cannot live on humans, do not survive indoors, and are not known to transmit disease.
