Living with them as regular visitors to the house we have largely given up
trying to stop them getting in, as you say they can get in amazingly small
gaps. They seem to be largely winter visitors here coming in off the
fields when it gets too cold for them.

I normally find them to be of little nuiscance apart from the time when
they proceeded to gnaw the tops off a cupboard full of Tupperware when we
were away. That did push my patience a little.
