Or just mount video cameras on your house/property within site and most would-be intruders will avoid it like the plague and go onto another home to invade; something easier and less risky. For $400 you can buy an indoor outdoor system with good resolution that will record continuously for close to a year (then it just re-records over the hard drive again). Also, keeps your teenagers in line when you are away.
That's a laugh. We've had 4 incidents of car break-ins, over the last 6 years. "car-hopping" is the most frequent crime in the metro area. Drug addicts enter cars...looking for cash. Most have no records, so even with video, pics, and prints...the cops can do nothing. My shop got hit, about 6 years ago. These addicts have no fear of cameras, and will wear hoods or masks. As a side note...when they do this, they go up the entire road to each home. We leave in a semi-rural area, on a dirt road. So, it's not like living in an urban/"hood" type area. Most neighborhoods are being cased by someone....daily.
