I've actually used a jar just like this video shows and the rodents eat the plastic top right off the jar.
Use a jar with a metal top or you will regret it like I did!

I actually use a mason jar and a foodsaver machine with the jar attachment to suck all the oxygen out of the jar that contains my seeds.

Plastic leeches pseudoestrogenic compounds that are bad for humans so use paper like a mailing envelope instead. The outer container that does not touch the seeds can be plastic although I've heard rodents will chew through plastic containers so glass is more reliable. Good video.
