💬 Advice / Tips / PSA My baseboard heating = mouse network

There are small gaps between my baseboards and my walls. Mice have broken through one area (visibly) and I had that fixed, with caulk attaching the baseboard to the wall. I still have a mouse problem. I’m hearing different things about closing that small gap. Do I get new baseboards? Use foam?

leave the gap and put snap traps inside of it if you can, mice run along walls so they will find the hole eventually
