Heat/venting.Make sure the gutter behind the front gill is intact.

And
A-pillar:

They are open on the bottom, and then there is a nice hole behind the
dash that perfectly fits for a mouse. Interior light wiring goes through
that hole (driver side).
You can feel/find the hole when lowering the glovebox, and putting your
hand in that area windscreen/doorhinge. Hole is facing forward, and if
door´s open, you might even feel a little airdraft.

Raimund

At the end of the summer last year I had two mice get in during the night.  They got into the insulation, among many other things, and made such a mess that I had to replace all the insulation.  I am determined to avoid that this summer.  I sealed up three places where they may have gotten in: I replaced the gasket around the sink drain where it exists under the floor, and I used plumbers putty around a hole where the ground cable from the house battery passes through the floor, and sealed around the lines from the AC in the closet.
