@Nik S.

I just put up trail cameras, also known as game cams.

They have infrared and are motion activated. Batteries should last a while in warm weather.

We will see!!

By trade I am a ISA Certified arborist. I cannot legally trees unless provided explicit permission by property (tree) owner.

Gets tricky with property boundary trees.

I recently purchased two houses on the same street. Having recently moved to the area I was unaware of potential security issues. Since Local code requires primary residency to complete work as a diy’er I am living in one of the properties. The other is rented.

Vandals and thieves have been taking advantage of the situation by stealing tools, materials etc. Some vandalism as well.

My main questions are: experience dealing with insurance companies when filling claims, do they raise premiums?

Not much support from authorities, due to case volume, begs the question, should I even bother reporting it?

Any ideas on deterring thieves in general would be nice.

Thanks!
