Scare the wildlife ... that's good, we've had it with "Nature." We just
sold the "farm," in part because the two jack rabbits had taken up
permanent residence in the garden, the deer munched lunch on the roses,
the big and little raccoons kept turning over Andrea's many pots, the
flock of 30+ turkeys strolled in the big lawn pooping up a storm, the
pair of hawks roosted on my tribander and screeched for days until the
kids finally flapped away to escape Mom and Dad, and the two llamas from
across the road out the back gate regularly visited the vineyard with
their pal the goat.
Turkeys have the IQ of a carrot although carrots don't poop on the lawn,
possibly I'm disrespecting carrots. Llamas not much better, the goat
did seem to know night from day. The deer were oblivious, the raccoons
were mean, the hawks are protected, and the rabbits were pretty much
fixated on what rabbits usually do and I couldn't estimate their IQ, but
reproductive drive gets a 10 -- too many bunnies to count.
I had the motion light problem, and as for you, only one of several. On
the "Line Your Hat With Tinfoil" theory, I wrapped the sensor in
Reynolds Wrap with a strip down to the grounded mounting screw. That
solved the RF problem, but the "motion" part of the light disappeared.
I tore increasingly larger holes at the front of the sensor and
eventually everything worked and no RF problems.
YMMV
