    They sort of do - Wi-Fi and Bluetooth are supposed to coexist peacefully but that is not always the case. Other wireless technologies (i.e. non-Bluetooth wireless mouse) are far more likely to cause problems and clash with Wi-Fi.
    2.4GHz is an open band sn all sort of devices from cordless phones to child monitors use it which inevitably causes problems.
