Protecting plants from thieves

Lol I also use bells, as my groe is right outside my bedroom window, also a few beer cans tied to strings but that's mostly for critters. Namely, a big ass skunk I call Daisy roams my grow each night, she's awesome. Oh and also at one point of egress, a large black hornets nest with a string tied to the branch it's on that would be triggered to yank said branch upon any attempt to go through that way
What can I say,? I love nature.

I also have one of those driveway alarms that make a noise when a beam is crossed. It's a loud ass ding-dong, only cost me ten bucks, works great.
