Mice are often portrayed in the media as cute, cuddly animals. They scamper around, eat cheese, and tease cats. Tom and Jerry, Ratatouille, and a whole host of children’s books show rodents as sweet, funny creatures. Some people have even taken to keeping mice as pets! But Mice Mob is here to tell you that they are not cute—they’re contagious!
Why and how are mice dangerous to you and your family? First, they can spread deadly diseases, and they don’t have to touch or bite you to do so. If infected rodents touch any surface in your home, and then you touch the same surface, those diseases could enter your body through your eyes, nose, or mouth. This could also happen if infected rodents crawl across your food and then you eat it.
Of course, if the mice in your home begin getting more comfortable and come out into the open, you run the danger of getting bitten or scratched, which of course poses an even greater risk.
Some of the diseases that mice and other rodents could carry include:
Furthermore, mice, rats, and other related rodents are often infested with ticks, mites, mosquitos, or fleas. These insects feed on rodents and can then spread other deadly diseases. These include:
This list is extensive, and if it makes you a bit nervous, it should! You never know whether that one mouse scurrying behind your stove is carrying a contagious disease or not.
