Having confronted Dr. Evil, Jean Halverson, International Man Of Mystery, 
exclaimed:
 
 JC> What would be interesting would be if they beamed one tribble over to
 JC> the  Borg cube.... I don't think they are sentient so there wouldn't be
 JC> the  problem of consent and the Borg would ignore them initially
 JC> because they  don't appear to be a threat and they aren't sentient
 JC> anyway. 
 
 ED> Biggest problem?  The Tribbles require food in order to
 ED> reproduce,  there is no food present on a Borg ship.
 JH> What if the tribbles  could  be  genetically  engineered to consume
 JH> wire?? 
     More likely consume the material that the Borg and their ships are 
mostly composed of.  However there seems to be a prohibition in the 
Federation against such genetic alterations, and producing a destructive 
breed of nanites would accomplish the same effect.
