Flattened Mouse Found in Hay

I found a flattened mouse in the boy's hay today, and I was just wondering if this has happened to others. I'm guessing it came from the field that the hay came from. Is there anything I should do for my boys if it was in their cage?

Just wrap up the hay bag and contact the retailer if you have found the mouse in the bag before it has got as as far as the cage. Otherwise deep clean the hay area, put it all in the hay bag and contact the retailer. And of course thoroughly wash your hands.

Hay is a natural product so very occasionally things can end up in it. Any infection risk is comparatively low with a desiccated mouse. :(
