Is it safe for ferrets to eat house mice?
Mice form part of the wild polecat's diet, meaning that while eating them will present a slightly increased chance of your ferret contracting disease from the mice (they may also get fleas), it will be safe enough to not worry about. I suspect that, if you keep ferrets and have mice in your home, it'll be almost impossible to stop the ferrets eating them!

Would the scent of a ferret scare away field mice?
I have read that the scent of a ferret (and also ferret poop) would drive away mice and rats. As someone that has the seasonal intrussion of field mice into our house, and also has a house full of ferrets, I can tell you that they are NOT scared away by the scent of ferrets...at least not the domestic ferret that people keep as pets. I run a ferret shelter, and have had up to 45 ferrets in the shelter at one time. Each fall and winter, we get an influx of field mice in the shelter itself as well as the main house. We have ferrets that have free run of the house, and this does not deter the mice from stealing food from their bowls.
