Re: close a hole by cardboard

Take a net and cut small opening for the pipes and nail them in with a small mdf piece as a washer for the nails

Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community @majidrizwan. It's terrific to have you join us, and many thanks for your question about closing a hole.
 

As @J-P mentioned, you'd need to use something more solid than cardboard, as a rodent chew through it easily. You could take some chicken wire, scrunch it up, and then push it into the hole, but not entirely through it. You could then cut some cardboard to neatly fit around the exposed area to cover the wire. Alternatively, you could cut one of these Kinetic 50mm White Oval Adhesive Cover Plates to fit around the pipes and cover the hole.

Please let me know if you have any questions.

You could put steel wool in there. A few drops of peppermint will also deter them. Not essence.
