Durable
Mouse Retreat
The durable mouse retreat offers a hiding place for mice and has been validated in studies for low stress mouse handling. Research has shown that picking mice up by the tail is stress inducing, but can be minimised by using a tunnel. (https://www.nc3rs.org.uk/3rs-resources/mouse-handling)

Mouse Handling Tube
Research has shown that picking up mice by the tail exacerbates aversive behaviour, causes increased anxiety, and should generally be avoided. Mice are quick to habituate to tunnel handling and can subsequently be restrained by the scruff or tail base for procedures or health and welfare assessments without negating the positive impacts of the non-aversive capture. To reduce stress and help you gain more accurate results while testing we recommend reusable Clear Handling Tubes.

Mouse Tunnel
Certified (Contaminant Screened)
Transparent tinted mouse and rat tunnels are a remarkable innovation in enrichment for rodents. Other opaque materials such as PVC piping are widely used in mouse facilities, however, they are not transparent which restricts technicians from being able to see the rodents inside the tunnel during routine cage check.

Safe Harbor Mouse Retreat

The two-level design offers a platform for undersized weanlings to reach the food source on cage lids, as well as a means for submissive mice to find shelter and easily move away from dominant mice.
Stainless Steel Wire Hanger
Use the Stainless Steel Wire Hanger in combination with the Mouse tunnel. Having a raised mouse tunnel is more desirable than one on the floor.
