iPhone App Removal - As I use the phone, it keeps going into the delete mode

For some reason, my home screen has become ultra sensitive to touch - always going into the app-removal mode (shaking icons). This occurs when I touch a blank portion of the screen for only a second.

Just trying to scroll to the next screen will result in the app deletion mode and accidentally deleting apps. This also happens if I put the phone into my pocket without turning it off.

Is there a way to lengthen, or set, the time before the app removal mode becomes active?
