Bugged with Trespassers on Your Premises? Here’s How Smart LED Lights Can Help

Have you ever felt that your neighborhood has zero respect for your personal space? Do neighbors walk in to your lawn like its free circus and engage in unforgivable acts like whacking your newspaper from your porch before you get to read it? Does the neighborhood dog do its business on your steps and walk away like nothing happened? If you have been pestered with such acts of trespassing for way too long, this is time to take matters into your own hands and here are a few quick and easy ways to execute your plan of action…

If you lawn or back yard is not well lit, it is bound to be a hub for miscreants. The easy thing to do is to install uncompromisingly bright lights in the premises. High quality LED pole lights and even well mounted LED high bay lights should do the trick. With the right LEDs for your outdoors, power bills will never be a cause of concern especially if you choose solar powered options. These days, you can also access smart LED systems that come with motion sensors and camera features. If you do avail these smart systems, make sure to mention it clearly where trespassers can see it and witness the level of petty crime in your premises go down like it was never there. 

Tip of the day… Make sure that your LED systems with motion sensors come with proper alarm systems as well. this way, the minute someone uninvited waddles in, the alarm will go off with outcomes you are assured to cherish.

How good and sturdy is your fence? Does it look a little too welcoming? If yes, this may be time to introduce the subtly weaponized ones. It has been observed with respect to human psychology that trespassers are wary of fences with no nonsense look like dark metal fence with spikes etc. On top of that, make sure you light up your fence area adequately with power saving LED lights like solar powered fairy lights etc. Well lit areas make thieves very uncomfortable. With solar powered LEDs, you will never have to worry about energy bills.  

There have been occasions when even the best of security systems have failed to keep trespassing neighbors off premises. These are times when you need to buckle up and make sure that the point is driven across in ways that will be remembered. If you don’t have small children / pets in your premises, start by dotting your fence with itchy plants. Poison ivy, sumac, nettle etc. are a few to mention. However, you need to remember where you planted them so that you don’t become the victim of your own solution. 

Put up signboards that may or may not speak the whole truth. For example, there have been homes that put up signs well lit with LED lights like “keep off the grass… banded kraits on the loose”; “Beware of Dog” … in a house with a couple of Cavaliers etc. This will make trespassers think twice before they step on your grounds.
