      The bias is real, but rats and mice are very clean creatures, only sticking to dirty places because that's where it's warm and where there is food.
      Also, getting bitten by a rodent causes infections for the same reason getting bitten by a person does, mouths are full of bacteria, the only reason you don't get sick from your own is because your body is used to your bacteria, not another person's.

    I kept a deer mouse as a pet but it was a an orphaned baby who didnt even have her eyes open when I found her so I raised her on a syringe of goat milk from a baby and she was pretty much tame cause she knew me and saw me as her 'mommy' so she never bit me even as she got older. I also assumed since she was so young when i found her that she probably wouldnt have had time to really pick up any parasites since she was barely a week old when i found her. She was such a great little mouse I named her Peppy Pepito cause she was a peppy (lively active and high-spirited) little mouse. She liked to curl up in my hand when she was ready to go to sleep and let me give her cheekrubs til she passed out and then i would gently place her back in her nest under a half-log type thing i got from the reptile section of the petstore. i tried to make her enlosure as mouse-friendly as possible and used more natural things like rocks and wood half-logs and stuff like that since she was a wild mouse. she did LOVE running on her little wheel tho haha i would hear her up all night hearing her wheel spinning and spinning lol.

    This is a great temp cage! But, as someone who has mice, there is not enough hiding spots for the mice and Kaytee tends to not have the best food for mice. I recommend getting Mazuri rat and mice pellets. Also, with a tank for a mouse cage, you should have a mesh or other breathable material for the lid. Again, this is a pretty good temp cage! But if you plan on keeping mice then this is not ideal.

Even with fish tanks you need some level of ventilation, which is why a completely closed lid tank with fish in it will typically fail. This is not the place for advice on keeping pets.

Unfortunately at a house party somebody caught a wild mouse in the house and put it in the tank with the pets. It had mites and soon the whole tank was full of them. The house mouse was removed but the pets didn't last much longer.

    Deer mice are so cute and so smart. I have 3 and they invented a game with the exercise wheel.
    One of them runs on the wheel and another hangs on the edge and goes around. They love this game. I've seen two of them hang on while the other powers the wheel.
    It's like watching an 3 siblings play together and their bond seems strong.
    When I clean the tank, I tell them "I gotta clean. Consider taking shelter" and they hide in their lavish coconut I've bedded with a soft towel.
    They are more than happy to stay out of my way when maintaining the tank.
    They have 3 completely different personalities. One is very scared and cautious. Another loves the running wheel and largely ignores me and my hand if I'm giving foor or water. The last one loves to jump and clime.
    I named them after cartoons bc I love cartoons. Speedy, Jerry and Tiny Tim.
    None of them have taken a nip at me, so that's good but I don't think they'd be dumb enough to bite the hand that feeds.
    My original plan was to release them in the spring bc it's super cold out these days but I'm not sure if they'd make it since I've been feeding and sheltering them for a while.

    I really think the snap trap is the only trap that’s “humane” (assuming it kills them immediately). I remember sticky traps were supposed to be more humane but then the mouse just slowly dies. Some even lose their legs or tails trying to get out. If you see one in a sticky trap, take it outside, poor oil on it until it manages to wiggle free
