The House Mouse (Mus musculus) is a small,
slender rodent that has a slightly pointed nose; small, black, somewhat
protruding eyes; large, scantily haired ears, and a nearly hairless tail with
obvious scale rings. The adult Mouse weighs about 2/5 to 4/5 ounces. They are
generally grayish-brown with a gray or buff belly. Similar Mice include the
White-footed Mouse and Harvest Mice (which have grooved upper incisor teeth.)
The House Mouse has an overall gray color. The White-footed Mouse
and Deer Mouse both have a white underside.
The House Mouse's tail has very little fur on it, the tails of the Deer Mouse and the White-footed Mouse are moderately to well furred and are light underneath and dark on top. Native to central Asia, this species arrived in North America along with settlers from Europe and other points of origin. A very adaptable species, the House Mouse often lives in close association with humans and therefore is termed one of the "commensal" rodents along with Norway and Roof Rats. Following their arrival on colonists’ ships, House Mice spread across North America and now are found in every state including coastal areas of Alaska, and in the southern parts of Canada.
