Is it normal for mice to do this?

In my closet I have mice(not as pets but the annoying ones in your walls) and I have candles in there also. The mice keep eating the candles. Is it normal for them to eat candles and wouldn't it kill them?

    Yes, this is normal.
    I own several pet rats, and if I left candles lying around when they are out of their cage, then they would "eat" the candles.
    Actually, they don't eat it, they just love to gnaw on things :)

  • I think they eat pretty much everything they can find. I recently had mice who came in through the garage door. 5 deaths by mouse traps, 1 by the cats. I thought my cats would be much more effective than mouse traps, I guess I was wrong.
