    Like another has said. Yes it can happen, but its very unlikely since they do prefer to stick to places where they can munch on stuff. Just keep things clean and your good.

    Something I found interesting that I was told about mouses before, dunno how true it is or not but...

    From what I was told, with a running start, and mouse can actually jump around four feet high without a problem. :)

    Just the other day I saw a mouse climbing on a screen from my window. I had placed it against the wall behind my oven and fridge area in my apartment kitchen. Shock filled my eyes and my girlfriend was alarmed like I saw a ghost because I couldn't believe I saw the mouse climbing it. In retrospect it was like the mouse had been on that table before because he was pretty damn quick to get up there and seemed eager to get on a table I have between my oven and fridge. Often that table will have spilled flour or noodles on it so he must have been up there before. Well that was my story about a mouse climbing but like your friend said a mouse won't come get in your bed while your sleeping because instinctively they avoid human's. It's a survival trait of theirs. My advice to you is set the old fashion mouse traps using peanut butter or/and cheese in the bait part and put them in areas that won't get stepped on. A mouse loves a house and not even necessarily a dirty house. They are a pest but I'd put up w/a thousand mice before one cockroach.

    I have a phobia too. But yes they can they can climb straight up buildings. I have seen them do it, so i am sure that your bed isnt much of a challenge if they really want up there. Sorry to tell ya, just get som poison and they will go away and die.

    It's possibly, but very unlikely. If you have mice in your house they are more likely to stick to the kitchen where they can find crumbs.

    to avoid having mouse problems, make sure you keep all cupboards clean and put food in plastic containers rather than cardboard boxes that can be easily chewed through.

    YES i just had it happen to me!! now i am afraid to go to sleep until daylight. this is the second time this has happened. i think the mouse was born in here both times, and that is why it has no fear of humans. i think it wants to play or something!! i am afraid to turn off the light and try to go to sleep.

    Well, it's possible that it could but I doubt that it would happen unless you have a serious mouse problem in your house.
