Set booby traps under your windows

Daytime invasions are easy for some, knowing most people are working or in school. The intruder/intruders are not in school or even have a job is my thought. (or even planting poison ivy in with the roses or prickly bushes) Great idea Roy!

Planting roses or other such thorny plants right outside your basement windows is a great and cheap way to keep these (allegedly bad people) from coming in through your basement windows.
