Would be golden, for a consistent STRONGER distraction method, without a long going ringing outcome like clocks and timers.
We could harvest tin cans from foods (restoring the good ol' dayz mod tin can purposefulness) for making those noise makers with rope, which would produce a LOUD noisemaker, which will attract a louder radius rather than the usual impact of an item.
Tin cans could be used too for some lovely tripwire traps, notifying us of intruders at our bases.
If I play namalsk, and camp in the forest for the night, I'd place some of those tincan tripwires around to notify me if someone is sneaking up on me.
Then just pick em up in the morning, like any other tripwire trap.
Survival aspect buffed and exhalted :)
