I found a dead mouse under the fridge!?

Question:

i smelled really bad, and now my two youngest kids are sick
(vomit & diarrea) could the smell of a dead mouse make my kids sick??

Answers:
no, not by the smell. However, if they were playing anywhere
near where this mouse was and may have consumed some of the feces, THAT could make them sick. Mice carry many germs and diseases. You may want to call their DR and see what he recommends.
I hate those things we get a lot of them here at my house, field mice from out here in the country, we bought an electric mouse trap from the Home Depot, this thing works like a charm! It doesn't harm pets or children.

Other Answers:
Doubtful.

omg, not the smell, but mouse carries all kinds of dieases.
Take your kids to a doctor now, and tell him.
vomiting and diarrea is the signs of infection, dont wait, take them to a doctor now.

they could possibly just be allergic to it

Get a cat and name him Quirky, but get rid of the mice quickly.

I doubt if the smell makes you sick, except for the gag reflex type of sickness. ...unless you didn't wash your hand or unless you made soup of it or something.

Probably not, but if you found one mouse, there are probably more. Their droppings could get into the food and their fleas carry dangerous diseases. Call an exterminator to check your house.

You should be very concerned about this for every bodies sake and get medical attention. What did the mouse die of?
