A few years ago I went under the cottage and sealed all openings with foam and made sure all doors were weather tight. Have not had a mouse (knocking on my wooden desk). We started out with moth balls, went to moth balls and cloves and now to dryer sheets and cloves - still no mice. As added insurance, I close all interior doors tight and make sure the bottoms are sealed - in case a mouse gets in they don't have the run of the place. All of the food we leave is in sealed plastic (Tupperware) containers. All this has worked so far.
