:lmao:
Like the recycling idea, though setting out tripwire for possible intruders seems a bit over the top for me :D
If you camp with permission you don't need it ;) And there aren't any murderers out in the woods in search for sleeping campers to murder :p They have more chance for a suitable victim in the cities than in the woods, and they probably are scared of the dark / strange noises :yikes: so they don't go there anyway. :( :rolleyes:

Green paracord (2/3 mm) does the same job ;)

Great Idea. Dont know much about the intruders but I have set an alarm on the tent door to stop the really little children escaping in the middle of the night. Maccy Dees can provide a near endless supply of light up motion sensor beeping things, and some of them might be useful when camping. I used to tie bells to my daughter when she was little so I could hear her wander off. Mobile phone number written on childs arm with perminant marker is good as well.

Usual disclaimer: The use of maccy dee products is no substitue for parental supervision or home cook food. :)
