I use bungee cords but I am pretty well fed up with mine right now. It seemed to run great at first but now it doesn't. I can get it to take pics in the house, in the backyard, whatever, but when I go hang it in the woods and it gets cold it shuts down. That is with a fully charged 6 volt and a brand new battery in the camera. Go figure. What good is a trailcam if it won't work in the cold.[:'(]
