We have critters in the attic. ?Unfortunately, they don't seem to want to be
caught by our rat traps (cages sized for Noregian Roof Rats, which we've had
before). ?So, I assume it's something larger. ?What I really need is to know
where they're entering the attic, so I can seal it.
But wait you say, this is a Linux list. ?I have an old P133 system that I just
shut down. ?I had this thought - what inexpensive peripherals could I add
to this box to help me solve it?
I was thinking I could put the box in the attic (winter fortunately), and put
a cheap camera on it. ?I'd need some type of flash/strobe, or it would have
to be an IR-capabel camera (they only seem active at night, so even low-light
won't help). ?If it's a still-camera, I'd need a motion sensor, though that
might be good either way.
Suggestions?
