A family of mice have invaded my raised bed of baby spinach. Can we still eat the spinach if washed properly?

Yes, if you wash it, it is safe to eat. If you want to be extra sure that it is safe, you can add a drop or two (but no more) of bleach to the water that you will be rinsing the spinach in and this will help fully sanitize any potential pathogens.
