Mice eating hostas

I know it's those darned mice because I see the holes where they've chewed through the landscape fabric and have found a little place to live. They are also living between the rocks of a little dry rock wall that my son built for me. They've chewed the stalks of the hostas and have taken leaves to their little holes. What are they doing with these leaves at the entrace to their holes? The biggest question is this--how do I get rid of them short of killing them with chemicals? My husband was thinking of getting an animal syringe and injecting ammonia into these holes. Will this work and what should I do to keep them from getting into the garden from the field next door? Any quick replies would be wonderful!!! By the way, we have no pets...
