Slideout Mouse Highway

We just bought a new Rockwood Mini Lite 2205S. We got to camp in it for two nights and now it's time to winterize. I was looking under the trailer for potential entry points for mice (we live in the country). I found a few areas I sealed up - but then this. With the slideout extended this seems an open highway for mice into the underbelly. We don't store the rig with the slide out, so this would be an issue when we are camping - which we boondock a lot. Anyone have an idea for sealing this gaping hole?

Doe's that move or is it stationary? Spray foam a option ? Or cut a piece of rubber and put it around ,If it just for storage how about steel wool?

Thanks Chris - Yes, it moves with the slide so stuffing steel wool not an option. There is a steel cap that moves with it to cover the hole when the slide is stowed. I am just concerned when camping and the slide is open. I did think of a rubber gasket, but am hoping that there is something made for this purpose, rather than trying to fab-up a cover.
