Both good suggestions. You can also seal it with silicone sealer. Make
a ball around it. This will seal it from water, air and moisture.

Good idea but I've read that you have to be careful of what type of
silicone you use. Apparently at least one type has an acid in it that
will eat away and corrode the wire.

I always wondered about that. Is that why 'dielectric' silicone is
recommended for exposed electrical wiring connections exposed to the
elements?
