What you need is a bucket, a wine bottle, an old sock and a lump of cheese.
You half fill the bucket with water.
Pull the sock over the thick end of the bottle until it gets to the start of the narrowing for the neck.
Stuff the hunk of cheese into the neck of the bottle.
Now you put the bottle over the bucket so that the sock ends over the water, generally you'd sit the bottle in a tree.
The mice crawl along the sock to get the cheese, when they hit the bare glass they fall into the water and then have a "nap".
We made these when we were on the farm during the mouse plagues and there would often only be about 2 inches of empty space in the top of the bucket in the morning.
