A plastic cap on the end, then dip the last 3 inches in 
PlastiDip.  No bugs, no water, no worries.

 Spiders have felled towers.   I had one that had a web in a leg

freeze.  It split the tower leg, ruining the section.  Had the tower 
had a larger      load, it would have completely folded.
 Ive seen it happen much closer to the ground in cheap, Aluminum TV 
towers and those were a complete loss.
