Instead of poisons or glue traps to keep field mice out of your home, try prevention to live in harmony with them. Use a flashlight outside your home at night to try to find small holes or cracks mice may find to enter. Plug those holes with steel wool or insulation; doing this not only prevents entry for mice, it also helps insulate your home! Field mice also hate the smell of ammonia, so you can soak cotton balls and leave them at points of entry, too, as a repellant.
