Ideas for camping perimeter?

[Adamz04]

I was wondering if anyone has any easy but effective ways to set up a perimeter around a campsite. Maybe a 40x40 area. One that would be effective for 2 and 4 legged rascals.

For what purpose. is this a bug out situation and you want to set up security, or are you just out camping and are scared of animals?

Kinda what I was wondering. I went them to come into my camp, less work I have to do for food

Bacon netting... delicious in the morning.

Probably the only weigh effective solution, for 1 to 2 people, is going to be trip wires and flares.

They aren't hard to come by, but can be dangerous in a woods. I don't know for sure, but I imagine you could find a similar device that just emits sound ([edit] like a bell ). Flares are reusable if not tripped, and recovered with CARE.

Here's a good one that Mercop put together.

You could always build a brush corral with sticks and the like. Take a bit of foraging but if it's doable in the African bush it's doable in an American forest setting.

Dig a moat...fill it with your own excrement and punji stakes. Just a thought....

I would just go with a basic dirt hole set. Trappers know what I'm talking about.

If just for camping out I would say a big mean dog staked in and chained where he could reach where you want him to be able to. The other inexpensive option would be the fishing line and some bells.

I would use fishing line and a dirt hole set like Mike H suggested

Trip wire with bells tied to it

I was going to say something like this. Fishing line about a foot off the ground with some bells tied to it. The other thing that works is a fishing line tripwire tied to some mouse traps. You tie the string to the trigger on the mousetrap and they "snap" pretty loudly when tripped. If you want a little more "pop", you can buy those little white things that you buy around the 4th of July that you throw on the ground and they pop. I hope you know what I mean because I don't know what they're called. A couple of those under the arm of the trap will make a pretty decent "pop".
Cyalume also makes a tripwire set-up made specifically to be used with their lightsticks. It doesn't make a lot of noise but the light should scare off most trespassers.
I hope these help.
