This week school's out and houses in my neighborhood are getting

school sports or the house has a coach, but this is not the case. I
guess toilet papering a house is not vandalism, but certainly can be
classified as littering (a $50 fine, max). At one house they
spray-painted "Ha Ha " on their concrete driveway. What can be
done? What can one do to prevent their house/trees to be toilet
papered?


This seems like an annual affair. The easy and cheap way is to have a
video camera running on automatic to record the going ons while you
are asleep or away from the house. You have proof. Get them to clean
up afterwards. No police, no fines, etc.

I have a little device that connects to a video camera. When it
detects motion it saves an image to a SD card. A useful thing I got at
Wal-Mart.

Most of the saved images are pictures of passing cars, but some are
useful.
