Snakes on a plane would actually solve this problem.

I always thought it'd be kinda cool to be an animal on a plane... I mean here you are, getting onto this long cylindrical tube that is closed air-tight, and when re-opened is in a whole new area/atmosphere/environment etc...

Interesting story, glad that it didn't cause too much of a problem while the aircraft was flying with passengers. Imagine, someone goes into the lavatories and finds a mouse staring up at them!

I was waiting for a plane once at EWR (Terminal A), and a mouse scurried out from behind a baseboard, posed long enough for me to take a picture, and scampered off somewhere. Knowing what mice can do to wiring on airplanes, I was not pleased.
