    Tonight I had *three* false alarms where dog walkers picking up their dog poop from the driveway set off the siren. I feel bad when people who pick up after their dog set off the alarm because I'm glad they are being responsible! But also tonight I had two people wander in, one smoking something and the other stealing some trash.

    Five alarms in one night was enough for me to attempt to fix this.

    So now, if everything goes according to plan, if an animal is spotted in the driveway it will disarm the alarm for 5 minutes. That should give the nice people who pick up after their dogs enough time to do so without triggering the siren.
