Interesting you should say that...these guys certainly know what it is the house now...all the stuff they didn't have time to haul away, like the big screen TV the actually carried down a winding stairway from the second floor! We've had custom-made bars put up on the master suite (where we sleep and where they broke in). Our house is Mediterranean style, so the iron bars look like normal embellishments to the house. The ironmonger is working on bars for the guest suite, kitchen, and gates for our access doors.
Truth is, we think our neighbour's kids are responsible, but she is one of those "they're teenagers, I can't control them..." kind of parent. Her kids steal beer from her fridge and throw the bottles over the garden wall and they climb over the wall at will...I have caught them in our back garden more than once. It's not some flimsy fence...we have a 12" thick masonry wall between their property and ours! Yesterday the maid found a burned down cigarette next to one of the security gates in our back garden...somebody was standing in our yard, next to the gate, smoking. Small wonder our dogs go off barking in that part of the yard!
Cameras won't help...cameras need light and these guys wait until cover of darkness. I'm thinking razor wire and electric fencing...
