We’ve been having trouble with rodents (I assume squirrels) in the crawl spaces on our second floor. I decided to stick a PIR sensor on the door to see if I could catch any movement, and sure enough, a bunch of movement around 1 AM this morning. (Correction, it was a possum, which makes sense in hindsight as they’re nocturnal).
Logical next step: home assistant connected auto turret?
Not unless there’s a Home Assistant auto body disposal as well. Also I was wrong, it was a opossum.
Just put conveyor belt in the crawl space moving stuff outside after turret discharge.
We could definitely figure that one out. Bulldozer attachment on a home assistant connected roborock should do the trick
Like the ones in Alien? 😳
@early_riser At some point I’m going to put a sensor in our crawl space. Mainly to track humidity but I’ve been debating including a motion sensor. Honestly I’m not sure I want to know how often things are lurking under the house!
@jongranrose @early_riser FYI, vampires don’t trigger motion sensors. So if you do it and the sensor doesn’t go off, you probably have vampires.
As long as the sensor only picks up stuff that’s rat-size or larger then it’s fine. If there are something “large” down there, it can be a hazard to the house foundation. I’d say it’s better to know. 😉
Which motion sensor device do you prefer?
This is a Sonoff PIR sensor.
