If your bird is a parakeet (Budgie), then the growths are most likely Scaly 
Face, which is caused by mites. There are specific treatments for that, usually 
it is an oil that suffocates the bugs. 
I don`t think CS would do them in, unless it starves them or something like 
that.
 CS is great against Giardia in birds, it cured a baby cockatiel I had a few 
years ago. The vet had diagnosed the bird as having giardiasis by examining a 
poo sample microscopically, and she said "but they aren`t moving!" referring to 
the bugs. I had already treated the bird with CS that morning. The bird was 
perfectly normal 2 days later with nothing but CS.
