Question by MahatmaJohn: What kind of motion detector will alert me to deer etc in my garden?
I would like to make an alarm system for my garden to detect deer and maybe smaller animals, that the dog would then shoo away. The garden is 100 feet from my house and measures 75×75 feet. What is the best type of motion detector for this application? Wired or wireless, battery or line voltage, manufacturer, the more specifics the happier I’ll be!

Answer by Paul in San Diego
House alarm systems have motion detectors that you can install. I don’t know how weatherproof they are. But, if you can get one that is weatherproof, you can get a wireless one that would transmit a signal to the main unit in the house. Alarm systems also have a chime mode, where every time the detector is activated (by motion, or opening a door or window), a chime or beep goes off.

As far as the kind to get, there are so many on the market. Just look on ebay at the various kinds that are available and study up on the different brands to find one that suits your needs.
