This is something I'd like to know too. Except my mouse problem is indoors. So far my only solution is to build an indoor sealable greenhouse.
But with spring, the mice are squeaking and having babies in the walls. I hear them plotting away...
If anyone knows whether mice (or roaches for that matter) are attracted to mushroom cultivation, please say how you've dealt with it!

They love the grains. Squirrels too. Glue traps will solve your indoor issues.

Thanks doc.
We used to have glue traps and also a killer cat... those only barely managed to keep the mouse population under control.
If things get outta hand I'll prolly have to track down the nests themselves.
To the OP, if you have a garden, planting peppermint or spearmint (anything minty) does keep the mice out some.
I used to drip peppermint essential oils on paper towels and place those around the house, it kept grown mice away (til the oils dried out) but baby ones would just run right over them, don't know why.
Maybe you could plant these herbs around your outdoor grows?

I fruit monotubs outside under a high deck.
Rats have pushed the polyfill into the tubs and climbed through the holes and munched on the colonized substrate.
Neighbor's cat catches the rats ... and is so proud of his hunting prowess he leaves the carcasses for me to appreciate.
I think the rodents smell the grain.

its better to use BRF cakes for outdoors. Not entirely sure why. RR says.. Wait until June to plant them outdoors. If you put grains in the ground, the damn squirrels will dig up every single kernel to eat, and destroy your patch. Mix the grains with manure indoors, and then in June or July, bury them into a shallow hole with horse or cow manure spread all around the substrates you're planting. If you want to spawn directly to manure outdoors, use pf cakes, not grain.
