A bunch of good tips already. I had about 20 years experience in the security field before retiring about 8 years ago. There are two aspects to the problem of theft. First is prevention and second is apprehension.
To prevent a theft and absent lethal force which will usually get you into more trouble, you need something to slow down the theft until something else happens. Think of it this way. You"ve got a silent alarm system on your house and someone tries to break in. If the house is pretty secure it may take a few minutes to get in. By that time the police or your security company may be on the scene and the burglary is stopped. A recurring argument here is that the cops can"t or won"t get there quick enough. That"s true in many situations so then you either have to make the thief"s object harder to access or go to an alternate responder. That responder may be you, police, security or even a junk yard dog. There is no wall or lock or other antitheft device that cannot be overcome given the time and tools to do it with. So a person needs to figure out what they"re trying to protect and what alarm or notification system needs to be put in place to stop the theft. Read on one of these forums where a fellow installed a line from a motion detector light to his house to ring a bell whenever something activated the sensor. It doesn"t have to be complicated. That same line could release a solenoid latch and the junk yard dogs kennel.
To catch a thief is another issue. The doctoring of fuel sounds like a good idea as are the cameras.
