 Eek, a Mouse!!
comment
A staple of early domestic comedies in both film and television. The mere sight of a mouse (or sometimes another animal who is the subject of a common phobia) will drive a housewife up onto a chair or a table, where she stands shrieking, stomping her feet, and clutching the hem of her skirt until the rodent is captured or driven away. This is largely a Dead Horse Trope today, with old examples rooted in a very specific and sexist image of women that dates back to the early part of the 20th Century, but it is still occasionally visible in cartoons and in the odd ironic reference. In some media, this is a unisex trope and involves a Mouse Hole or a Swarm of Rats for scare factor.
Cartoons will sometimes play with this trope by crossing it with the old myth (deemed plausible by the MythBusters) about mice frightening elephants, which results in elephants that shriek and leap up onto some (possibly insufficiently-strong) object upon sighting a mouse. Other common ways to subvert this trope include showing the wife standing unfazed while her husband shrieks and leaps to safety.
This trope is arguably justified by evolution. For the vast majority of human existence, the animals commonly associated with this trope — rodents, snakes, spiders, etc. — were potentially venomous or carriers of disease, and a human's fear of it could be an evolved self-preserving instinct.
See also Cower Power and Why Did It Have to Be Snakes?. May overlap with Screams Like a Little Girl. See also A Mischief of Mice, You Dirty Rat!, Spiders Are Scary, and Squirrels in My Pants. Contrast Nice Mice and Resourceful Rodent. In Japanese media, frogs are often used instead. Supertrope to Elephants Are Scared of Mice.
Not to Be Confused with Eek! The Cat. Also not to be confused with the Jamaican reggae artist "Eek-A-Mouse".
Truth in Television, of course, as many people do indeed fear mice and rats, for various reasons both rational and irrational.

Clue: In book 17 (chapter 2: "Say Cheese!"), Mr. Boddy reveals that several white mice have escaped from their cage (they were his sister's pets and she accidentally left them behind when she was visiting). The first one to actually do this trope is the duel-crazy Colonel Mustard, but the other guests don't laugh because they're doing the same thing.

Kate & Allie spends an entire episode dealing with a mouse, complete with jumping on chairs and tables in fright, when Allie's son Chip is taking care of his classroom's pet mouse and it gets out of its cage. Subverted in that 1) they realize that they're behaving like 60s sitcom housewives, 2) Kate and Allie are running a catering business at the time and are justifiably concerned about mice on the premises, and 3) Allie's sportscaster boyfriend also turns out to be deathly afraid of mice.

Dragon Quest VIII has Prince Charmless who refuses to undergo the hunt for an Argonian Lizard to prove he's worthy of the throne because he's afraid of lizards. All lizards. Even little ones. You have to scare him out of a room he's holed himself up in at one point by nudging a lizard into it, provoking this trope as a reaction to it.

Elh from Solatorobo absolutely hates bugs and insists that Red kill them as quickly as possible when you come upon them (which is a good idea, since the bugs attack you like most everything else in video games). There are also two Protection Missions in which the goal is just "don't let the bugs get near Elh" (this includes if you accidentally throw a bug across the line because apparently even a dead bug is creepy).

Fire Emblem:
In Fire Emblem: Awakening, the mere sight of a -apparently huge- cockroach flitting around sends Lucina and her sibling (which depending on her mother could be Cynthia, Inigo, Kjelle, Brady, or Morgan, all of whom are experienced warriors who have survived a zombie apocalypse) into a panic. With Cynthia this is a fairly straight example, but it's even funnier when it's one of the guys, or Kjelle, who wears 24-Hour Armor and is still afraid of it.
In Fire Emblem: Three Houses, should Edelgard engage Claude in battle at ‘the Battle of the Eagle and Lion’, Claude will say that there’s a rat by her feet, causing her to freak out. Claude will lampshade how he didn’t think that would work while Edelgard will call him out on it. Although it becomes less funny when it's revealed that Edelgard was subjugated to experimentation to give her a second crest, and she was trapped in a cell that was infested with rats.

In The Hazing, Delia acts like this when she tries to collect the Terrifying Pet Store Rat for the Scavenger Hunt; especially after it somehow gets tangled in her hair. While this might have been part of her Obfuscating Stupidity, she squeals again when the rat comes through the portal after she has dropped her Dumb Blonde act, so it's possible that she actually is scared of rodents.

MythBusters: When testing the effects of mood on gas consumption, Grant was forced to drive a course while a pair of mice were allowed to run loose inside the car; his reaction screamed this trope.
They also find out that elephants actually do fear, or at least avoid, mice; they explain it as, due to elephants' terrible eyesight, a blur moving around on the ground could be a venomous snake as easily as it could be a harmless mouse, and they're better safe than sorry.

Looney Tunes: Several old shorts utilize this trope, usually those starring Sylvester the Cat. "Lighthouse Mouse" is one example.
In one short, a mouse mocks the way the housewife panics.
With each of these shorts involving a black and white cat, this is used twice: Once in "Pied Piper Porky" and the other in "We, the Animals Squeak". Difference is the unnamed cat from the first short is male, the other from the latter short, named Kansas City Kitty, who is female, featured this moment as a recycled animation. The first has Porky ordering the male cat to get rid of the mouse, but the feline is easily frightened by it. The second has Porky giving a present to Kansas City Kitty, which is revealed to be a mouse and Kansas City Kitty is frightened by it after what she had been through with some other mice.

Ryan, who believes the old legend that the Earth would spin out of its orbit if all the Chinese people in the world jumped off their chairs at the same time, panics when he spies a group of Chinese exchange students standing on their chairs in the school cafeteria. One of the students explains that they had just seen a mouse, causing Ryan to calm down. Once Ryan is gone, though, the student gets angry and mutters: "Curses! They're onto us!"

The first Madeline special introduces Madeline's fondness for mice by showing her happily playing with them in the kitchen while the other little girls all quake and "Eek!" on top of a stool (where somehow all eleven of them fit). Later, the nurse at the hospital also cries "Eek!" when Madeline asks for some mice to play with.

The supervisor, Emilio, thinks it is probably just a mouse- but he orders the crew to hunt down the rodent just in case. Eventually, Rita catches it while Luisa and Ana shriek- and it turns out to be just a cute little mouse!

The non-fiction book that inspired Homicide: Life on the Street mentions that one of the detectives had been called home by his wife to deal with a rampaging mouse. "I disposed of the body, but considered leaving it as an example to others."

From Garfield:
This strip, where Garfield screams and scurries up onto Jon's head upon seeing a mouse — and Jon is disgusted because Garfield is a cat.
Referenced in this Garfield comic, when a mouse claims people call him "Eek".
Referenced in this comic.
Garfield did it in consideration for the mouse's birthday.
Jon yelled "Eeeeeeek!" then he said "Um... I mean, get the mouse." Garfield said it'd go into his blog.

Sesame Street:
In an early 1970s sketch, Prairie Dawn and an Anything Muppet boy visit a “haunted� house, where the boy is repeatedly frightened by various sights and sounds, each of which Prairie explains and says there is nothing to be frightened of. Finally, the boy finds a little white mouse, at which point their roles reverse and Prairie reacts with this trope, right down to the titular exclamation:
In another sketch from the same decade, "What's My Letter?", Guy Smiley challenges Prairie Dawn to name the letter that comes after D. Despite Guy's hints, Prairie struggles until he prematurely shows her the prize:

In The Chicken from Outer Space, the pilot to Courage the Cowardly Dog, Courage was afraid of a mouse in the beginning. Muriel plucks the little rodent and sets it loose outdoors. But after the battle with the titular chicken from outer space, we see Courage looking at it again as it fed on the ashes of the fallen fowl. The mouse's eyes turn bright red as a result. It was a Justified Trope as Courage screams in terror.

In Hayate the Combat Butler, Maria is scared of cockroaches (they even have a nickname within the story so they can be talked about around her). Shiranui brings one into the house and she shrieks standing on Hayate until he apparently shoos the kitten away. Still trying to figure out how he did anything with her standing on him like that. But don't worry, he trains.

The protagonist of Jennifer Blood takes advantage of this stereotype in issue 3, when a neighbor who's convinced she's attracted to him has cornered her in a bathroom and exposed himself to her. She doesn't want to ruin her "perfectly ordinary suburban housewife" facade by maiming or killing him, but as someone who moonlights as a brutal vigilante, that's all she's trained to do. So she starts shrieking about a pretend mouse.

The Name of the Rose. The monks hear a shriek, then laugh at a Camp Gay monk on top of a stool with a mouse below. They quickly shut up when an elder friar starts shouting at them. This turns out to be a Chekhov's Gun re the motive of the killer, who hates laughter.

National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation After Uncle Lewis accidentally burns down Clark Griswold's Christmas tree from chain-smoking cigars, Clark desperately wants to continue to have a perfect family Christmas by chopping down a pine tree in his own front yard, smashing his neighbor's window in the process. Unfortunately... things turn out worse with a squirrel (not a mouse) popping out of the new tree, scaring everyone throughout the house. Clark Griswold tries to catch it in his Santa coat and smack it with a hammer. But in the end, Cousin Eddie's Rottweiler Snots eats the squirrel, right on the angry neighbor Margo's collar, as soon as she enters the front door. "Gone", calmly says Clark right afterwards.

Arthur: The opening teaser of "Pets and Pests" has the entire Read family, sans Baby Kate, demonstrate a highly over-exaggerated version of this when Dad unveils his banana bread and there's a mouse on it. It ends with them all running out of the kitchen screaming, only for Mrs. Read to run back in and grab Baby Kate.

In Cinderella II: Dreams Come True, the Fairy Godmother manages to undo Jaq's human transformation and turn him back into a mouse just in time to stop a rampaging elephant.
In Cinderella III: A Twist in Time, Jaq and Gus help Cinderella get into the palace by scaring the kitchen servants while Cinderella poses as the "royal mousecatcher".

A subplot in the very first episode of Victoria has the rats of Buckingham Palace being displaced from the 'downstairs' part of the building (where the servants live and work) to the 'upstairs' part (where the Royal Family lives and works) because of technicians installing gas for lighting, heating, and cooking. This culminates in some rats crashing Queen Victoria's 19th birthday party, and Victoria having a Freak Out when she sees them sitting on her birthday cake.

Larry kills the mouse, but Jack doesn't want the girls to find out because Janet won't sleep in her bed as long as the mouse is around and Jack is using it as an excuse to sleep in the same room as Chrissy. Meanwhile, Mr. Roper doesn't want Helen to know the mouse is dead because he was using it as an excuse for Helen's mother to not visit.

Referenced in "Kitten Kong", where a housekeeper (suspiciously similar to the one in Tom and Jerry, we even hear her shouting for "Thomas") jumps on the table and shrieks at the sight of the team dressed as mice.
Referenced and inverted in "Punky Business" when a mouse trying to assure Tim that he is ugly tells him that when he walks into a room all the mice jump onto a chair.

El Chavo del ocho:
One episode has Quico playing with a mouse while snickering — and later Dona Florinda and La Chilindrina screaming and fainting due to the mouse.
A late episode has Doña Florinda's restaurant plagued by mice. She and Chilindrina exhibit the expected reaction throughout, especially in a hilarious scene where Chavo unknowingly brushes the latter's leg with the broom he is using to hunt the mouse; she has an absolute panic attack, thinking it's the mouse climbing up her leg.

Played with for a laugh in Final Fantasy IX. Incognito princess Garnet picks up an oglop (a beetle-like insect), having no problem with the little critter whatsoever. However, since she's supposed to be undercover as a normal country girl when an old woman comments that most girls hate them, she squeals theatrically and flings it into the air. Meanwhile, the Knights of Pluto — doughty bodyguard Steiner included — positively flip out when confronted with the bugs.

A 1940s Superman story had a dream where Lois gains Superman's powers. When first getting used to her new strength, she tests it by picking up a massive cabinet and moving it across the room while the workers are on break. When they come back and ask how it was moved, she boasts that she lifted it herself. But before she can prove it, a mouse runs across the floor, making her scream as the workers have a good laugh.

Animorphs:
Naturally averted with Cassie, who works with animals every day. One story has Marco wonder how you can tell a female Hork-Bajir from a male, such as being weird around bugs and snakes. Cassie raises an eyebrow and throws a (harmless) snake at him. Marco Screams Like a Little Girl.
Genderflipped when Cassie morphs a rat to figure out why it won't complete a maze when two dumbasses enter the lab and try to kill the rat. She runs up their pants legs to get them to leave.
Played straight when Marco gets Ax to morph a mouse with him so he can eavesdrop on a girl who didn't invite him to a party. On finding out why she didn't invite him (it involved a prank with a chocolate bar and a pool) he runs across her toes, prompting mass panic in the girls, macho bravado from the boys, and annoyance from Jake and Cassie, who very quickly catch on when the mice seem to understand English.

Dollhouse. At the start of Season 2, a pissed-off Dr Saunders puts lab rats in Topher's cupboard, in a not-too-subtle message of what she thinks of him. His female assistant Ivy has to retrieve them while Topher climbs the nearest railing to get away.

On Imagination Movers, Knit Knots wasn't scared by Warehouse Mouse to the point of panic but did urge the Movers to keep the "woodland creature" away from him. An episode of the show also focused on the Movers helping a TV repairman to get over his fear of mice so that he could stick around to fix their TV and not be afraid of Warehouse Mouse.

Fraggle Rock: This is how Ma Gorg reacts to Fraggles. Fraggles are considered pests by the Gorgs, as they often steal radishes from the garden and, to a Gorg, a Fraggle is about the size a large mouse would be to human.

This once happened in Archie when Ms. Grundy jumped on her desk and Jughead took a picture of it for the school newspaper. She actually was worried that the picture would be about how scared she was of a little mouse but instead it turned out to be proof the school needed an exterminator.

Thunderbirds: The subject of a subplot in the episode "The Mighty Atom". Yellow Peril terrorist for hire the Hood steals an autonomous camera disguised as a small brown mouse and sends it into Thunderbird 2 to gather information on the technology inside. Unfortunately, it's programmed to focus on faces, the idea being to take pictures of operators at control panels to see which parts merit the most attention. And since Lady Penelope is the only one inside, and she's simply terrified of mice, all it gets are photos of her looking frightened, causing the Hood to smash the camera in a rage.

8 Heads in a Duffel Bag: The two female leads do this when they find a disembodied head in their luggage during a family vacation. ("Eek, a Head!"?) One shuts herself up in a closet and refuses to come out (until the protagonist jokingly suggests that the dead guy's body might be in there), while the other attacks the protagonist with a fork. The latter is especially hilarious because what causes her to snap is the protagonist innocently asking, "Would you like an enchilada?"

The Brady Bunch:
Happens with Alice on when a pet mouse gets loose. Although it's averted another time — she hands it to the boys and isn't scared.
In a different episode, Cindy runs into the kitchen asking Alice if she has seen her pet lizard that escaped its box. Through a clenched-teeth smile, Alice answers, "Yes I have. He's over there." Camera zooms out to reveal that Alice is standing on the table.
Invoked and subverted in a third episode. Bobby and Cindy complain to Emma that there is a mouse in the house. Emma tells them to make a pet out of it. Bobby and Cindy are shown petting it and clearly not afraid of it.

In Saber Marionette J, in order to make the marionette robots as much like (stereotypical) women as possible, every one of them is programmed to be afraid of mice — except the tomboyish Lime, who merely finds them cute. This actually saves the heroes in one episode, when Cherry (reluctantly) punches the cave's ceiling and makes a whole colony of mice fall on them, sending Tiger and Panther running away in fear.

Semi real-life, with another type of vermin rather than a mouse: the late X Japan guitarist Hide and the drummer/bandleader Yoshiki were/are both terrified of cockroaches. One story has it that when the band members were in Los Angeles for the first time, a roach had gotten into the room Hide and Yoshiki shared. This trope ensued with both, according to the story, jumping up onto the bed and shrieking until it was finally agreed that someone had to kill the roach, and depending on who's telling the story, either Hide or Yoshiki finally did.

Chip and Potato:
Potato is a mouse but only Chip knows this, and all of the other characters think that she's her snuggly toy that she totes around with her everywhere. It's implied that Chip keeps Potato a secret because the other characters would react this way if they believed her to be a real live mouse.
Sure enough, this happens in "Chip's School Trip" after Chip is forced to leave behind Potato in a dollhouse in a museum. To the point that there's a scream and a voice comes on a loudspeaker telling everyone to make their way to the exit. Then, when Howie opens up Chip's lunch bag, he spots Potato in her mouse form, screams, and tosses the bag and sends everyone else into a panic.
When Chip first reveals the truth to Nico in "Hospital Trip Chip," he tells her to call the nurse, but after realizing what's going on calms down.

In Dragon Ball, Goku is fighting General Blue of the Red Ribbon Army. Blue has Goku paralyzed with telekinesis and is about to finish him off... when a small mouse appears. Blue flips his lid, freaks out and loses focus. Goku is grateful enough for the unwitting save that he rescues the mouse when the cave they're fighting in collapses.

Tom and Jerry: Done many times.
In one short, the "eeker" is Tom's cowardly identical cousin.
Averted in one episode when the lady who owns Tom buys a pet white mouse (actually Jerry painted white that Tom had sold to the pet store earlier in the cartoon).

Referenced in South Park episode "Eek, A Penis!" where a mouse with a genetically engineered human penis growing on its back frightened women. Actually they were frightened by the penis (and who wouldn't be—even if a mouse or a human penis wouldn't freak you out, seriously, a mouse with a human penis growing out of its back?). But the trope still stands.

In The Chronicles of Narnia, Badass Adorable Talking Mouse Reepicheep wants to be a herald, but he's too small to be seen until he's up close (and therefore not very impressive). Of course, since he's very touchy when it comes to his honor, nobody wants to tell him this, so they tell him that it wouldn't be quite fair to their enemies since some humans are afraid of mice.

In The Finishing School Series, which parodies many Proper Lady tropes, Sophronia and her friends create a distraction by having Bumbersnoot run around under the rug and screaming "Rat!" causing them all the other girls to scream, faint, and leap onto furniture. To be fair to them, Bumbersnoot is a mechanical dachsund and thus far bigger than any rat should be.

In Fire Emblem: Three Houses, should Edelgard engage Claude in battle at ‘the Battle of the Eagle and Lion’, Claude will say that there’s a rat by her feet, causing her to freak out. Claude will lampshade how he didn’t think that would work while Edelgard will call him out on it. Although it becomes less funny when it's revealed that Edelgard was subjugated to experimentation to give her a second crest, and she was trapped in a cell that was infested with rats.

Buffy the Vampire Slayer:
Averted in the premiere episode. The heroine doesn't even twitch when a sewer rat runs over her foot.
Buffy does jump at a sewer rat in "I Will Remember You", but that's a sign that she's nervous over working closely with Angel.
Inverted in Angel when Gunn and Wesley freak out over a rat and Cordelia is the one to get up and deal with it.

Though she would threaten any animal in the zoo and chase after the bears relentlessly in any vehicle she can get her grubby hands on, the bullyish broad was cowed by a tiny mouse who was telling the zookeeper and his would-be wife he and his friends' last goodbyes. Instead, the would-be wife ran away terrified, never to return.

Happens a few times in some The Three Stooges shorts. Justified for the time period.
Perhaps the most famous is in "Horses’ Collars", where, any time Curly sees a mouse, he flies into a violent rage while screaming, "Moe, Larry, the cheese!" The other two Stooges have to feed him cheese to calm him down.

In Fire Emblem: Awakening, the mere sight of a -apparently huge- cockroach flitting around sends Lucina and her sibling (which depending on her mother could be Cynthia, Inigo, Kjelle, Brady, or Morgan, all of whom are experienced warriors who have survived a zombie apocalypse) into a panic. With Cynthia this is a fairly straight example, but it's even funnier when it's one of the guys, or Kjelle, who wears 24-Hour Armor and is still afraid of it.

The Monica's Gang story "A Mouse's Love" (as well as its Animated Adaptation within the franchise's debut feature film) plays with this. During a costume party at Franklin's place, Monica, who is dressed like a mouse, stumbles upon one of his inventions (which, as Franklin points out later, even he can't figure out what it's meant for) and gets caught in it. The invention, as it turns out, is a Shrink Ray, but Monica doesn't figure this out until she walks back into the party and is mistaken for an actual mouse, scaring the party guests into shooing her away.
One Monica strip, which sees the debut of Maggy's pet cat Vanilla, sees Jimmy Five and Smudge attempting to invoke this trope, by sneaking a mouse into the box with Monica's birthday present for Maggy, with the intention of scaring both girls. When Maggy opens the box, however, the mouse is nowhere to be found, as it turns out the present was Vanilla.

He finds her encased in a magical shield, between two rat nests with the critters scurrying around her feet. As Geralt points out, she is a master sorceress who could've wiped them out with a mere twirl of her wrist.

In The Witches Bruno's mother flips into hysterics when the witches start turning into mice thanks to drinking their own potion. She literally climbs over her husband screaming about them climbing up her skirt. Although in this case, it's completely understandable since there are over a hundred of them running around.
The reason that the potion transforms children into mice in the first place is because the Grand High Witch hopes to exploit this trope, thinking the mouse-children will be so revolting that their teachers will kill them.

On Titan, the world of the Fighting Fantasy, Calacorms are large, two-headed Lizardfolks that are quite dangerous in combat... but they are terrified of rodents, especially mice. This is explained as an ancient superstition coming from the legend of Suthis Cha, the Lizard God, who choked to death while trying to eat the Mouse God Karreep.
