This is an excellent test and has been valuable when determining what size entrance reducer a mouse may get by and gain access into a honeybee hive. I've tightened the tolerance even more and set the max opening at 3/8" and have not witnessed a house or deer mouse be able to pass through that opening. This allows honey bees to come and go without the need for mouse-guards. Thank You for sharing!
What about a maze that requires 1 extra step each iteration to complete? That it has to press different buttons to move different walls in a specific order. When the combination completes the exit opens. Something like the Simon game?

As a beekeeper your experiment just solved a great question that beekeepers have had for years. The question has been what is the opening size for the front entrance of a beehive should be so a mouse can not get in? The answer is 3/8 of a inch high which is called bee space in the beekeeping world. With this information now you do not have to guard the entrance with hardware cloth.
When I saw the title and the thumbnail of the mouse stuck like that I expected something horrible Instead I saw something fascinating and interesting with no horrible surprises to shock the viewer. Awesome is all I can call it, even though it definitely was a clickbait title... :/
Story I grew up hearing about: A local fox hunt club would come by to my grandfather's to inform (i.e. not ask) him that they were leading a hunt across his land. They jumped a wall at the property edge and he would add a new row of stones to each time, making it slightly higher. Never got tall enough to stop them, though. Pity.

This is an extremely helpful video for me, as I have a brand new car which has been invaded by mice. Been closing off the garage with steel wool, planks and anything else I can think of while it has been in the shop for diagnosis and repairs. Closing off all gaps within around 10,5mm should be doable, as the 22 mice I have killed so far have been about the same size as the one in this video. So grateful that some clever individuals use their time to post stuff like this.
Woah... but this is a great idea. How do they call this board game with the shifting labyrinth in English? Anyway, it'd be awesome if Matthias did a mouse maze which changes while the mouse is at the center or so.
