Cheap security camera

Someone is putting garbage in my yard. I think its my neighbor who has
had issues with my family the past 15 years.

Its being done randomly in the very early morning hours before sun
up.

I want to set up if possible a cheap webcam to catch whomever in the
act. I would need to run the webcam through my basement window and
disguise and postion it in a manner to catch whomever in the act then
record nightly.


I have a laptop with 60 gig HDD space.

Anybody have any ideas?

Go get 'em! My neighbors are creeps. They should all be chased back south of
the border.

I had another thought: do you have automatic sprinklers? Hook 'em up to a
motion sensor, and fill the lines with paint.

haha Thats a good one. Yours too olfart. Both a little to extreme for
me though.
I think its the old lady who lives next to me and has hated my family
since we moved in. We had kids and she could'nt stand the fact that my
kids played in front of my house. Go figure. I'll probally go the
security cam route suggested above, may need to wait a couple months
though. If its her and I get her on tape she will be so embarrased she
may move away.

Whatever you do, keep it legal and FIRST call the police so that you
have an official record!
