Mice usually come from outside through small gaps around pipes and utility lines, under garage and exterior doors, through foundation cracks and vents, and sometimes from the roofline. In attached homes and apartments they can also come from next door. To find the spot, follow the droppings, look for gnaw and grease marks near gaps, and check where pipes enter the house.
