Mice are opportunistic and adjust to what is readily available. They will eat just about anything and will make nests out of pieces of anything they can find. They reach sexual maturity within 2 months after birth and females can deliver litters of between 3 to 14 babies, as often as every 40 to 50 days.
Mice can carry diseases that are dangerous to humans and other animals. Some of those diseases can be deadly.
