I'm having some mysterious trouble in my greenhouse where something seems to be digging up my dormant crops and creating holes in the garden beds. I've even checked for entry points but couldn't find anything, and the traps I've set haven't worked at all. I want to figure out what's causing the burrowing and chewed bags of flower bulbs! Since it's currently too cold to grow anything, I'm considering getting a trail cam to catch the likely nocturnal culprit. Does anyone have any recommendations for good but affordable trail cameras?

You might want to check out the Muddy Pro Cam 16; it works well for spotting different animals, including deer!
I don’t monitor, but it’d be interesting to see what goes on while I'm away!
I once set up a camera when something was munching on my cantaloupes. It turned out to be a squirrel party! I found moving my electric fence helped a ton. Better watch those little bandits!
If your Wi-Fi reaches your backyard, consider the Eufy S340 camera; it's around $120-150 and often goes on sale!
Or maybe it’s a wererabbit causing the trouble? Just a funny thought!
I mounted a few Google cameras in my backyard a few years ago, and they helped me spot everything from raccoons to even a black bear! It's really fun to see what's out there at night!
This whole situation is giving me major Peter Rabbit vibes! You've got to find that garden intruder!
I've had great luck using a Wyze camera to catch a deer stealing my peaches at night! They’re super affordable and you can even use them for other home surveillance too. Good luck!
While I prefer surveillance cameras instead of trail cams, they work well for monitoring pests too! I’m keeping an eye on my pets and critters in the yard. Have you thought about that?
I set my trail cam out on some rye cover crop and caught cottontails having a snack. It’s funny to see them enjoy the goodies!
