What's th Best way to immobilize a riding mower to prevent thieft?

[JimPap]

I agree with all the other folks who feel that nothing will stop a determined thief.

I'd suggest some sort of video surveillance system, with cameras positioned to get a good view of the machines as well as the probable escape route of the thieves. Motion activated lights and an alarm that sounds inside the house would be good, too. I'm sure the homeowners assn would prohibit anything that made a noise outside the house.

Thieves suck.

While I was at Lowe's this morning I asked one of the lawn mower guys about this. He suggested to electrify it as you would an electric fence.

Oh so tempting.

Sounds like a good way to get sued.

That is for sure and they will be the person out there with a good lawyer and a law suit on you for if your dog bites them. They know how to play the game. You better have good home owner insurance.

No worries from my end.

I was going to suggest Claymores ("This side toward enemy") but I suppose the lawyers would frown on that, too.
