The trap looks far more expensive than anything I’d order, but it’s a clever idea. Dye would be better. The car or residence would be ruined, and the thief would be limited in public activities if the dye hits their faces.
“Dye would be better.”
Great minds think alike
Skunk smell oil. It won’t come off unless you use some special soap.
Even dumb or lazy cops could find the perps. Their neighbors would turn them in just to stop the smell.
A 12 Gauge shotgun and fear for my life when I encountered a thief on my porch {no cameras until the body is in rigor} would solve this problem.
Is the crime of stealing worth killing a thief? Not really, but fear for your life is a different story.
Glitter is almost as bad. Glitter is the herpes of the craft world. Those people will never get all of it out of their cars, for instance.
Years ago, I owned a rental house in the Detroit ghetto. A friend of my crackhead tenant stole a five gallon bucket of paint we had locked up in the basement.
He said he borrowed it to paint his mother’s house. (Not quite sure how one goes about borrowing paint)
He then proceeded to blame me for not having the bucket lid tightened for it fell over in the back of his brand new car.
I laughed too hard to be mad about the paint.
And the lawyers would line up to sue!

To make it work better, the liquid in the bottom of a fly trap will more than gag a person. It wills soak into the seats destroying the value of the automobile, plus it will cause anyone who smells it to puke.
