Reminds me of a mousetrap I saw years ago at the Enchanted Valley Chalet in
Olympic  National Park.  A length of heavy-gauge wire was secured across the
mouth of a five-gallon bucket. A piece of wood was mounted was mounted on
the wire like a teeter-totter with one end resting on the rim, the other
free to pivot down. Bait was placed on the unsupported end of the board.

When a mouse ran to the end of the board to get the bait, it pivoted down
under his weight, dumping him into the bucket.
