How do I get rid of mice in the garden?

Question

I have been growing my veggies for a good number of years now, but have never encountered so many mice holes. I do not use chemicals and do not like to kill anything. Does anyone know a safe way to rid me of mice without affecting my principles, I have tried mothballs down the holes, but to no avail (I used these to get rid of moles!). Help is urgently required as they are feasting on my seedlings every night. Finally please no expensive gadgets as am on a very low income.

Cat seems to be the most logical answer to get rid of "thothe pethky meethes!" lol. May be another deterrent could be to use a water sprinkler at night if it is possible.
