I'd say the mice are carrying the mites around more than the wild birds ( if they are the tiny tiny gross mites). Wild birds keep themselves pretty vermin free unless they are sick and when they are sick they get more vermin, visa versa.
I've found my chooks like ash dust baths. Ash is super fine and the mites hate it. The wild Babbler birds we have bath in the ash from the bon fire too.
