You may well find other similar instances in other places in the cabinetry. In my own kitchen, for instance, I found gaps which enabled creatures to pass from inside the wall into a storage cabinet, then another that allowed them access from the storage cabinet into the space under the stove. | |
Nov 9 at 18:39 | comment | added | JoJo | @DavidRecallsMonica what is poor about about the workmanship? The fact that there are gaps around it? Or other things like the caulking? Just asking for future reference | |

The poor workmanship around this pipe suggests that other instances of poor workmanship may also exist in the room. Any gap(s) between a cabinet floor and its wall, or holes that allow the passage of wires or pipes, can provide access to mice and rats. It would be prudent to remove and inspect behind big appliances (dishwasher, stove) as well. | |
