For about 10 seconds I thought that might be a good approach to our own local problem (had tools stolen out of the truck parked in the driveway a few times now).
Then I remembered how I come home every day (exactly like the person in the video: by bicycle, passing beside the truck where it sits on the driveway to reach the gate).

This guy must have been watching this guy’s YouTube channel as he tried to protect some nesting birds from cats.

Oh I have to do this. These are called Scarecrows and it is the only product that has deterred raccoons who dig for grubs in my yard. I actually like the raccoon, mostly what they do for my garden is a good thing but as the supplies dwindle they start digging for the ones that are huddling around the roots of my pepper plants.
Lots of snoopers on my front porch/yard though.
Expandable foam would work well.
A guy in South Africa came up with this genius defense against car-jacking, which I suppose could also be motion-activated.
