it can be related to time issue only...!!!
if ur files are created more than three days only and not modified then it is not going to work correctly....
Mate ideally use should use ctime and not mtime if your requirment is to find the files which are not created in last three day.
if you are deleting directory then you should be using -r which would act as a recursively.
