Came home and checked the mouse trap. No mice. Did catch a toad, though.
I had put up some cardboard to try to block the rest of the gap, hoping to force any mice to go into the trap if they were trying to get in/out of the area. Looks like one tried to chew its way through. We got some rain this morning, so if the mouse was trying chew that when it was all wet, he probably managed to bend the wet cardboard and get through. Looks like it's time to replace the cardboard with something more heavy-duty.
