For us it was a case of remembering to fill gaps with expanding foam in the 10mm gap at every opportunity. Particularly when removing skirting boards or laying new underlay / carpet.
Internal soil pipe enclosures was another area to look at.
One of the biggest building "oversights" shall we say was the discovery that the mains water & sewer pipes under the sink had a foot square opening around them straight through the base of the house. Heating the house use to suck in large amounts of cold air!!!!
You get their eventually.
