Gerbils are living things so obviously lack of food, sleep and water are the main things you need to worry about but there are lots of things which won't immediately kill him but after a while will lead to other problems which may be fatal. Things like ensuring they have enough sawdust to dig in and toys to play with all help with keeping him healthy. Look up how to cage a gerbil and how to look after him.

Some things are poisonous to gerbils, I world suggest finding a list online of things gerbils can and cannot eat, to be on the safe side.
