Would it be at all helpful to dig down around your foundation a couple feet, then hire someone to "seal" it with spray on foam insulation?

Years ago, we would get mice in the house each fall. We dug down a couple feet around the foundation and had spray insulation applied from the bottom of the trench up to the bottom row of siding. Probably been about 15 years since we did it...we have not had one single mouse in the house since then. (After the insulation was sprayed... down in our basement we saw several cracks and holes where it came through from the outside... we thought, geez - no wonder mice were getting in, they had free access for sure).

And for sure, I'd get some kind of sump cover that has very small holes in it so a snake could not get through it.
