Easy/quick/bombproof and replaceable.
Many cheap coloured tie wraps/cable ties are not UV stable and will
become brittle within a season.
I have used a variety of substantial cable ties to hold a couple of my
(square) compost bin sides together and have to replace them on a
regular basis. The main fixings on my bins snap out when getting towards
fully loaded and I drilled holes and used cable ties instead. For around
12 months these ties can hold the strain but once exposed to full sun
during a summer they snap. However, I would expect in the OPs case that
cable ties under no stress would survive longer.
