Sad to relate, the only true solution is to have the concrete repaired or replaced.

Where is the aviary located? If it is in a backyard, you could encourage a feral neighborhood cat to take up residence in your yard. Keep in mind that if you do this, you really should provide some form of shelter , vaccinations, and -- if the cat is female -- neutering.

: I have had my outdoor aviary for 3 years now and this is the first time I have had mice in it. The floor is concreet and they are digging throug the concreet. the hairline cracks in the floor are now big enough for the mice to get through. I put wire where the floor boards meet the concreet and they are chewing up the wood to get in. I was told dryer sheets would work.(haha) I have put in a rodent repeller you install in the ground. that evening I saw a mouse. Then I plugged in an electronic rodent and bug reppler that evening I saw a nother mouse. I have even been spraying vinegar aroud where they have been comming in. NOTHING WORKS!
: does anyone have any suggestions? I need to get them out before my birds start laying eggs and the mice have something else to eat.
: any suggestions would be appriciated.
