House Mouse

The house mouse (Mus musculus) is one of the most common mammals worldwide. It can be found in all parts of the United States and Southern Canada. Adults are about five to seven inches long, with large, round ears and mostly hairless tails.

House mice prefer grains and seeds, but will eat pretty much anything humans eat. It stays within a limited territory about 30 feet in diameter and travels along established pathways. Nocturnal, it makes 20 to 30 foraging trips each night, leaving 40 to 100 droppings scattered around in a single day.
