Drill holes in the firewood and stuff them with firecrackers and bottle rockets.

Alright, I wouldn't normally put you up to no good, but stealing from a neighbor is just low.

 

Here's what I would do:

 

Buy some crazy loud, explosive fireworks that are shaped like cylinders. Drill a hole in some random pieces of wood and load them up. When they steal the wood, they'll get a nice surprise :thumb:

See problem is, I can't catch them. If so I'd walk out with a shot gun and be like can I help you... I think a stake out or some cameras or my only option.

Just hide yourself under the tarp.

I'm telling you, stakeout and catch them in the act, with a camera. You will have evidence then.

Good ole fashioned stakeout after you make sure they don't have wood for a couple days and then put a fresh pile out would make for a fun night. Or you could just put a large sign next to the wood that says, "You are being video recorded. Take the wood again and you will be prosecuted."

Be a man, go next door talk to the nieghbors tell them that if you dont find out what is up and see it stop you may have to call the cops... Probably once they realize you know it will end, if they are on hard times maybe give them some ideas or a place to cut their own. Bad deal but I am sure they are not hardened criminals here.

I've never met you, but for some reason I don't picture this as being your answer to the problem if it were happening to you. :lol:

 

I would have a different way of handling it, but that's not for everyone...:thumb:

I believe this is your best route. I would go over to the neighbors and play it innocently. Ask them to keep an eye out for apparent thieves stealing your mother's firewood. Let them know you have alerted the police department and they have started an investigation. Never come out and accuse them unless they out themselves and then explain the potential criminal activity they could be charged with.

Send a letter to all the neighbors asking for a town hall meeting at your Moms to discuss stealing of the firewood, the neighbor who doesn't show up at the meeting...

I like that!!! When my dad used to smoke years ago, someone was stealing his cigs off his desk at work. He loaded them with the trick exploding cigarette loads, ... within the hour he found the culprit. Priceless!

I like bugatti's route best. If the theft continues, I'd go back a second time, letting them know that you have set up motion sensing cameras and hope that they will continue to "keep an eye out" for the thieves. :thumb:

Is it bad when I saw this thread title, I thought about Mike "The Situation" for the Jersey Shore. I thought this thread would be about your abs. If this were the case, you could just go over to the firewood and fist pump all night.

20 bucks and I'll stake 'em out and take care of it. :lol:

 

That's a hard situation, how about just telling them that you have seen them do it and you're collecting evidence for the police? Maybe they'll stop.
