I think one of your questions was done in by autocorrect. I'm not sure of what you have covering the underbelly. If it looks like corrugated plastic, it's called Coroplast. You can get it at either sign shops or Home Depot in 4x8 sheets.
It's very important to seal the underbelly as mice can get in through very tiny holes. Some people have had good luck using Gorilla Tape to seal small holes or rips. Be sure to clean the surface first. You can use expanding foam sealant around drains and gas lines. If you do have Coroplast I'd advise searching through old threads to see what others have done.
Good luck with a big project!
You are right-thanks for catching that! It was supposed to say can I use Eternabond to patch to holes. ?? Thank you so much for the tips about the foam and such too! I do believe it may be coraplast, but I don't think I need the whole thing replaced-it's in good condition overall. Just some little holes here and there that Ants found their way into and made a home. ?? Should I use the tape from the underneath or should I do it from the inside since I've got the floor ripped up already? Thanks for all your help!
