I have a field mouse (or mice at this point probably) in the house - the cat and dogs have thus far proven to lack competent hunting skills although they all gather at times and stare at a spot under the stove. She(he? they? how would I know) did eat some salted nuts that were on the counter. The bag had a hole in it and some mouse droppings were there when I got up one morning. I have seen the little guy a couple of times. I am trying to leave the situation up to nature/pets/survival of the fittest without me interfering.
