Hanging Christmas Lights: Non nail/screw hooks

This is the first time I will be hanging lights on my new home (have many times on other homes). This home uses a hardie (hardi/hardy) board siding right under the shingles along the house, which is near impossible to use a stapler on (fiber cement panels).

What ways can I use to hang Christmas lights this year?

We use gutter hooks like the above (ours are a little different). I think on our current hooks, the light sits in the hook and the other side hooks on the gutter, but in the past, we had hooks that would hold the wire up and we'd put them between the lights instead.

Easy to put on and pull off.

We don't put lights on the rest of the house though, so I don't know how you could handle the lights on the siding issue.

I like those, but I have not installed gutters just yet.
 
Yeah. They're all I've ever seen used around here. They're cheap enough. We don't generally have gutters in Texas.
