FYI 2018 Sport owners - unsealed hole in floor

Going over our 2018 Sport 22 for the winter, and discovered a huge unsealed access point under the RS bunk where the wiring harness comes into the cabin. Perfect mice haven. Click image for larger version

Similar in our 2017 26U.
Any good ideas for plugging it? I hate silicone, but...

Sealed mine up today from outside and noticed they did seal around the wires but not good enough. Could easily stick a finger through.
