About ten years ago I had a mouse in the house. If you've never had one, you're lucky. I searched all around the perimeter of the house to see where he could have come in from. I finally found a half penny sized hole between my pantry and powder room (right near the clean out for the toilet pipe).
Most people just put caulking into holes like this and let it dry, but rodents will eat right through it. Instead, tear some pieces of steel wool and fill any holes (believe me, mice can get into very tight spaces). Once the hole is filled with steel wool, patch the hole with caulking or wall spackling.
I also keep DCon packs (the kind with the small green nuggets) in a few places around the house just in case.
