Default How small a gap can a mouse get through?

let the head through.


I have seen them go through 1/2" mesh.


That's a worry. That's what I was supplied with to stop them - I have an
ornamental cast iron grill between the front door steps which help vents
the cellar and has much larger holes than that. But since covering the
inside with mesh a few years ago no signs of mice. Instead of near every
year previously. Perhaps it only stops adult mice, though.
