Default Re: Wild mouse care

6mm mesh is used for rodent proofing so it should be fine for adult house mice. I think the standard 1cm spacing of most hamster cages might be too big though, especially since it's bars rather than mesh which means they can flatten themselves to get through.

Apple and silver birch branches are fine for rodents.

I'm not sure about which beddings are best for mice in terms of smell as I haven't kept them. For my hamster and gerbils, I use Fitch which is similar to Carefresh but cheaper.
