Do a google search for "bucket mouse trap" and you will see lots of 
examples of this.  Usually it's a 5 gallon bucket.  There's no reason 
to use gasoline.  Water works fine, with antifreeze if in a freezing 
area.  You just need to catch/kill mice, not incinerate them along 
with the whole building.  Personally just use plastic traps like 
these:  www.intruderinc.com/products/the-better-mousetrap.
