Hmmm... I just can't wrap my head around how a mouse could chew a hole in a plastic trash can. The bottom edges are all rounded. Our big street trash container is plastic and we have kept it up near the street for years behind a wooden gate. Tons of field mice and no holes. We have had mice chew through insulation to get into the barn and also chew through wiring (the barn is heavily fortified with bait blocks inside) I use plastic horse buckets here on the farm for all watering and feeding. My metal buckets have rusted through the bottom after just a few years of use.
