I rent a place in the inner city next to an abandoned house. From the street, there is a fence between both the buildings - which squatters have determined makes for an ideal location to sit behind and sleep or smoke their illegal substances. Ideally, I would just tear down the fence so there is no privacy, but I don't own it, nor do I know who does. I imagine some of you are probably thinking "who cares" but this fence and area between houses is probably only 4-6 ft wide, and people are walking right by my kitchen, bedroom, and bathroom windows while my girlfriend or myself may be in various states of undress. If they just broke into the abandoned house and did their thing in there I wouldn't care. My thought is to place a motion detector on the rear of the fence with some sort of alarm to warn people off. Does anyone have experience with such a thing? A motion light would not be sufficient - they are walking back there at all times of day and night. Unfortunately there is some tree and overgrown grass cover in the rear that makes them hard to see from the alley in the rear, so even though police patrol the area, they cannot see them without physically getting out of their vehicle and walking through there. Thoughts/Advice? Again, I don't own this property, so it has to be something remote. Alternately if it could be placed on the inside of my window viewing out, it could be plugged in.

I did mention that I'm a renter. I'm not putting up a fence or anything semi-permanent. I do appreciate everyone's input thus far though
