I haven't actually done this, but I read in a birding book that they're
great for keeping squirrels and other varmits out of your bird feeder. 
What you do is glue (or tape) the lids shut, poke a hole in each end, and
then string them onto a wire.  Stretch the wire between two trees in the
backyard, and hang the birdfeeder in the middle.

Apparently, when the squirrels try and run across the wire to get to the
feeder, they run into the film containers and spin off of the wire.  If you
get enough strung on the wire, they can't even jump across.

Gotta try that one someday!  Sounds like it would be *great* fun watching
the squirrels "dance" on the containers!  :-)

Regards,

Chris
