I may have missed it, but our house has crawl space under it. We have found one of the best ways to get rid of mice is the 5 gallon bucket with about 4 inches of water in it. We used a coat hanger with a empty soda bottle running through, coated with peanut butter. A 2x4 leaning up against the bucket and when the mouse tries to get to the peanut butter, he spins on the bottle and falls into the bucket.

Amazon also sells traps that fit on top of a bucket as well.
