OG close to the house

Is there a formula for how close to the house to plant OG? I have a bush that is planted about a foot away from the corner of the house and grows up against it. I was thinking about replacing the low-growing bush with a large 4-6' OG (haven't decide which one).

I have a couple of concerns.

First is to give the grass plenty of room to grow healthy and look right. I was originally thinking of a single, huge OG "wrapped around" the corner, I could probably get a similar effect with a grouping planted appropriately.

Second is whether having something like OG would be the perfect condo for critters. As I'm currently trying to de-mouse my attic, I'm a little leary of creating the perfect home for them right against my foundation.
