Title: How to tell . . .
Post by: Mister Rog on 31 August 2019, 23:05:33


My house has a front drive, fairly straight forward. But also has a sort of drive down the other side with a bit of parking. All publicly accessible.

Recent piles of S**t around the back. Dog ? Human ? No idea. Wondering what to do. Gates - a bit overkill and pretentious. Cameras - So what ? even if I see something can't do much about it legally. Thinking about a motion activated gattling gun, but could get into trouble. Chilli spread around ? Hmmm quite expensive.

So, how do you tell dog poo from human ? They can be very similar in size.

Count legs .....  If the creature "performing" has 4 legs  ... its probably a dog .. if it only has 2 .. its probably (sub)human .....   :)

I have a similar problem on my front lawn where I currently park my car, made worse when the grass grows a bit and the turds are disguised - not nice to tread into an Omega!  >:(

A camera, with a red light to make it obvious, would be my shout. I'm sure it would put the dog owner off.

That is my next step. I bought a cheapo kit a while back from Maplins before they went bust.

Cheap or dummy cameras are a complete waste of money IMHO
I've fitted loads of FLOUREON CCTV kit which is excellent for the price point
1500 TVL or better  ;) you can get a 4 camera kit including cables ,dvr,cameras sub £80
just add a 500GB from an old sky+ HD box or a new one
so a total sub £100 will give you 1 week of 4 camera recording that you can remote access via your mobile phone etc
the police even said it was excellent footage when a house a few doors away got robbed
example clicky (https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/8CH-1080N-AHD-DVR-Recorder-4X-3000TVL-2-0MP-1080P-Outdoor-Security-IP-Camera-KIT/123890840485?hash=item1cd87833a5:g:ChMAAOSwbX9dHqjS) or another clicky (https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/FLOUREON-CCTV-4CH-1080N-DVR-Record-1500TVL-Home-Outdoor-Security-Camera-System-A/123186053494?_trkparms=aid%3D555018%26algo%3DPL.SIM%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D20131003132420%26meid%3D6e2bf52ddbed4432ac8a1a38102c80bd%26pid%3D100005%26rk%3D6%26rkt%3D12%26mehot%3Dpp%26sd%3D123890964390%26itm%3D123186053494%26pmt%3D1%26noa%3D0%26pg%3D2047675&_trksid=p2047675.c100005.m1851)
shop around ,in sales sometimes as low as £50

.................with the legally applicable warning signs if covering a public area, and wishing to use any recorded footage in criminal action. ;)

Also speak to the local council for advise and action. It is illegal to let a dog, or human, foul a public area, but please see the link for further info :

"cheap" is a relative term

Bet you're fickin fuming. Good luck getting the boys in blue to chase it up. It is, after all, a criminal offence to leave the scene of an accident.

Won't work as it will taste the same. :)

Dog shit smells far worse though. :-\

You will need to put a steaming pile side by side with one recently evacuated from your whippet, for definitive proof.

Let us know. :)

The smell of human shit is far far worse than dog shit!  :o 

It's rare that we encounter human shit, as we usually dump it in water which stops most of the stench.  :y

But given Rog's location I'd imagine that if it is human, it will be extremely pungent with heady tones of donor kebab.  :(  :D

I had a similer problem in that each morning I found a large turd on the gravel in front of my house. I was convinced that my neighbours dog was doing it but rather than just complain I decided to get some footage or a photo before I "discussed " it with him.
I bought a Sri Cam sp007 ip camera ( google it ) set it up and within 10 minutes witnessed our large snow leopard cat squat and crap..........Ooops.
Anyway, the camera is great , easy to configure and in daylight gives a very good image with multiple choice recording and transmission of activity to phone or i pad. Night vision is poor but I fitted an additional IR lamp which gives floodlight performance.
Film the animal resposible and go from there.......
Good luck 'cause it's an awful thing to endure . And yes we still have the cat.

Actually swmbo is thinking it could be a cat . . . . . and . . . . we have a cat.

Anyway I've dug out the CCTV thingy and will set it up anyway, may as well.
