I think it's a very good idea. A little 3M super 77 adhesive and some fabric would work wonders.
I personally bought some hardware cloth to do similar, but I like the cardboard idea better.
On an unrelated note, I found a nice use for cardboard last year. I needed to bake powdercoated parts at 300F. I ended up making a cardboard "oven" to do it. I just cut a hole for my heat gun and dropped in the parts through the top. I walked around it with an IR thermometer, and it stayed a consistant 350 F inside. I get about a dozen uses for each "oven" before it's crispy, then chuck it.
