Probably field mice. if you can't completely seal your greenhouse then you need to mask the scent of the pea and bean seeds with perhaps powdered moth balls or Obas Oil on small cotton wool pads or tissues near the plantings. The old gardeners used to roll their seeds in parafin or even red lead powder, not advisable nowdays.
