Could a mouse's tastebuds detect and be affected by capsaicin?

Teaching an unruly mouse that his habit of biting has consequences.

I've tried looking for research studies about spicy foods and their effect on mice but no luck

I'm pretty sure it effects all animals tastebuds the same, only humans ever actually like it, and that's because we're insane.
Dam I should go for that right now, my mouth hurts a lot maybe it'll help?

Inserting a sharp knife blade into your ear if you have an annoying itch within also works great

Not true! Some of the earlier anti-bear pepper sprays were found to actually entice the bear, and then they had a peppery seasoned human meal shortly later

the active ingredient of anbesol is the same as basically highly concentrated clove oil, but it's not nearly what I need. I just had 3 wisdom teeth removed, and the pain meds are wearin off.
I tried tobasco sauce, and it worked unbelievably well. Hell I may not need those pain meds ever again.

no harm done, at least it stopped hurting instantly and seems to actually work. And it was only 1 drop of tabasco, that's weak shit.
I'm suprised it worked perfectly. Better than gettin drugged up. I hear that experiments show that highly concentrated capsaicin ointment, when applied to wounds, while it initially hurts it instantly numbs for hours.
Maybe if I'm lucky tabasco will be all I need from now on until this finally heals.

I heard that birds can't taste the spicy. It was an adaptation where the plants only wanted birds to eat its fruit.

birds and reptiles are the only higher animals to not have alkaloid receptors to my knowledge. All mammals including mice are affected by capsacin akaloids.

Well I coated a small ammount of very hot sauce onto the tip of a small stick, the mouse normally atacks, hisses, squeals and bites at anything coming near. He went into a fit when holding the stick closer and bit at it maybe 4-6 times. Seemed fine after, no change in drinking/eating noticed.

I later coated the tip with chili sauce again and held it up to him, he jolted back and away from it, and would not let it near him again.
