How to detect wild animal pests in a windy garden?

@NeverDie Great link thanks. That guy has gone all out to fight the legions!

@Terrence You're welcome! This is the movie clip that inspired a lot of hackers to make their own:

For instance, a number of people have made paintball robot sentries. I think that for a backyard, though, water projectiles are the best.

@NeverDie I may have to dive into this, as we are expanding our garden and we have plenty of the furry devils. :)

Looks like it wouldn't be too hard to build something like this:

Then just program it to rapidly spray the entire region that you want protected. :) You'd probably want some waterproof motors, though. Not sure who sells those.

@NeverDie yeah, I think it's called sprinkler in most hardware stores and you can get the improved version with automatic movement without electricity for cheap now. :grinning: :grinning: :grinning:

Yes, as mentioned earlier in the thread. I think you're right, though, it would be easier and more practical. Then the problem reduces to mostly just a detection issue.
