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).
@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!
#HomeAssistant
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. 😉
@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.
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? 😳
