Anyone know of a good way to know if people have been in your room?

Question

just thinking if there is some booby trap type way of giving anyone entering my room a surprise or set something up so that if they do they cant set it up right again

Answer 1

first check if any of your stuff has been moved. put stuff on top of stuff and you can tell if someones touched your stuff because it will be moved and they wont be able to put it back exactly. i dont know of any real working booby traps...

Answer 2

Get a motion activated light switch,and rig it with a plug,and plug your stereo into it,set at full volume. That way if someone comes in,there will be enough noise that they can't do any more sneaking around!  You could even make it a 'silent alarm' if you rig it so the switch activates something where you're at.

Answer 3

my son has toy lazers that go off and I can never figure it out.  I'm not trying to steal anything though, I'm just putting the little boogers laundry away.

Answer 4

flash try this...

put a penny between the door and the seal where the hinges are as you shoot it. remember appx where you put it, say on the bottom of the bottom hinge, make sure no one can see it. then when you come home look to see if it's on the floor or moved from where your had it.

also..

ball up a piece of paper and place it just behind the door as you shut it. just barley squeeze your arm in and place it there. then when you get back open the door enough for your arm to squeeze in again and feel if it's still there.

Answer 5

Place a hair between the door and the jamb.  No one will notice this when it falls out.

Answer 6

If you don't already have a lock, get one. It should have a complex key, not like the simple ones that bathrooms use. You don't want anyone picking their way in. Make sure the hinges and screws for the doorknob are in the inside, too.

Set up something that will make it obvious if someone came in. Maybe putting a chair against the door or tape- and when you re-enter, open the door slowly to see if anything was set off

Make it clear to your family that you don't want them going in your room. And, give them no reason to keep anything that your family is lending you or might want back outside of your room. If they still do go in, ask them if your simple instructions were too complicated for them.

Tips

Keep the key with you everywhere.

Avoid giving people reasons to get in your room, like leaving dirty clothes or the phone.
