OK here is the Solve. 
 
look at the victor tin cat sticky traps... catches anything that walks the  
perimeter of a room you do not even need the holder you can lay them flat 
or  just fold on the perforations only downside they will catch friendly 
lizards and  they are stuck forever., it is a good non toxic solution to catch 
and entomb in  goo all insects and small rodents.
 
remember... EVERY rodent and insect eventually  walks  the  perimeter .... 
and when they  do.. you GOT THEM!
 
Back  when I had the computer business  we had thousands and  thousands  of 
feet of  warehouse...  and  had NO mice ,  cricket, roach, spider,  or ANY 
problems!    it was   fun to collect the  stickies and see what  zoo had   
corrected  there!

Steve,

May I suggest an  alternate approach:

NO place is really mouse free.  Especially if  it's anywhere near a  
field, or grass or hay or whatever.
Here, we  have some mice, a number of groundhogs, two ponies, many  
sheep, and  some cats who aren't all that good at mousing.  While  
working  on a TMC master oscillator one evening recently in "the barn  
shop",  two or three mice ran past my feet and into some darker corner  
of  the place.

I wonder if a dryer sheet or a couple of moth ball lumps in  each  
machine would be good protection?
