Can a Mouse Swim Out of the Septic Tank Back into the House?
My friend caught a mouse today in the kitchen. He flushed it down the stool.
My daughter said the mouse was trying to swim out of the toilet as he was going down.
Of course, I was gone to work during the fiasco, so I didnt get the opportunity to stop it.
My question is……what are the chances of the mouse swimming out of the septic tank and back into the toilet into the house? Have you ever heard of a mouse swimming into a toilet from a septic?

Mice and rats have been known to come up into toilets from sewers, so as long as the mouse didn’t drown then it is possible. The biggest obstacle would probably be the bend in your toilet itself, but a mouse wouldn’t have any problem fitting through there.
