Actually, bags of dog food, cat food and bird seed can attract them even more. Especially when like JFK, you live a bit out in the country and are surrounded by nature. Mice aren't stupid. If they know there is a ready made meal of some tasty kitty kibbles just inside that door, they will find a way in. Hell, I have a bird feeder that attaches to the outside of one of my windows with suction cups and was pretty amused to discover a field mouse had figured out how to climb a nearby bush, swing from a tiny branch, land on it and then squeeze through a small opening to actually get into the food chamber. Said mouse eventually found his way into the house through a small gap in my window screen and got into my pantry where he met his demise courtesy of a trap. I'm not as nice as JFK. No catch and release at this house
