From: Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary

 Mouse
    Heb. 'akhbar, "swift digger"), properly the dormouse, the
    field-mouse (1 Sam. 6:4). In Lev. 11:29, Isa. 66:17 this word is
    used generically, and includes the jerboa (Mus jaculus), rat,
    hamster (Cricetus), which, though declared to be unclean
    animals, were eaten by the Arabs, and are still eaten by the
    Bedouins. It is said that no fewer than twenty-three species of
    this group ('akhbar=Arab. ferah) of animals inhabit Palestine.
    God "laid waste" the people of Ashdod by the terrible visitation
    of field-mice, which are like locusts in their destructive
    effects (1 Sam. 6:4, 11, 18). Herodotus, the Greek historian,
    accounts for the destruction of the army of Sennacherib (2 Kings
    19:35) by saying that in the night thousands of mice invaded the
    camp and gnawed through the bow-strings, quivers, and shields,
    and thus left the Assyrians helpless. (See SENNACHERIB.)
