House Mouse The
House Mouse (also known as the Field Mouse) is small, has large ears, a
pointed snout and a tail as long as its body length. If living indoor mice
are more likely to be a darkish grey colour, where as those that mainly
live outside are more of a sandy or yellow brown colour. In the wild they
live for about twelve months and can have up to ten litters. Because of
their size it makes it easier for them to gain access to a house than a
rat. Also they are able to nest in more areas like cupboards that store
foods, furniture, as well as the roof and wall voids. When found outside
they nest in burrows. Mice are very good climbers, jumpers and swimmers.
They eat a variety of food but enjoy cereals and grain. They generally feed
at night. They are considered a pest because of the gnawing, nibbling and
contamination of foods with their urine and droppings. If you are having a
