A little trip to the vet is probably a good idea to get them checked over. You have had some good advice I see already about meshing or transfering to a bin cage. Mice only need the smallest of gaps to get through so for the time being a bin cage may be the best option.

The removal of mice is a tricky situation. In an ideal world careful catching and releasing would be the best solution. However I would use the snap shut traps which quickly kills and keeps the body in one place. I have used poision and these traps in the past. Living in a timber framed house, I don't want any animals chewing through cables, timber etc as they can cause catastrophic and very expensive damage.

The snap shut traps work but you need to try establish where they are getting in and block up all the holes to try and reduce the likelyhood of them coming back in.
