remember seeing on a UK gardening program sometime ago that had a
device that was basically a blank shotgun cartridge that had a was
held in a bracket then had spring loaded firing pin held in place by
fishing line that could be strung around the perimeter that you wanted
to protect. You disturbed the wire, the firing pin was released and
the shotgun shell was fired, resulting in nothing more than a rather
large bang. Does anybody know the name of this product?


TIA

Please note: Yes I have informed the police. Yes I have installed PIR
lighting (anymore and I'll need a direct line to the power station).
No I don't wan't to kill anybody, just scare them away and preferably
keep them out of the garden. Yes I have pyracanthas protecting the
perimeter. No I don't want a 6ft fence. No I don't know why there are
in my garden.
Hi have you tried cctv ?
