Original post: no, they will NOT harm u!!!! HARMLESSS!!!! they can t climb beds, more than likely run from u, then try to find and eat you!! No reason to be terrified of them!

My answer:
Yes, they actually can climb beds, given there are things it can use to climb. If there is a big wooden base for your bed, it will probably slip down. If your bed is supported by posts/poles then they wouldn't be able to use them to climb up. However, if you have sheets that hang down to its reach, it will be able to climb up. The average mouse can reach up to about 1.5X its length. Hopping mice can reach about double its length. Even though they can reach you, mice-- even rats- are harmless, and will rarely bite you. It will not if your are just lying in bed. Please keep in mind, if you are lying down, and you move, chances are it WILL run away from you.


Please, if you are faced with an Australian hopping mouse, do not react badly. These are a national animal, and an Australian icon. I, am currently raising on myself (I got it TODAY, its its a baby. Abandoned, straight from the wild.) These are truly harmless, and are infact very nice creatures.
