Mount reflectors every place there is a good spot to observe your position from, anyone sneaking up on you in the dark will give away it's position by eclipsing the flector
I live in my orchard in the south of spain where junkies and vagrants are always stealing my fruit and tools in the dead of night. I'd already set up some tripwires and cans, but it just wasn't loud enough. This is on a whole other level! I can finally sleep and be alerted to real intruders, instead of being paranoid and sleepless all night! Thank you!!!
I live on the east coast of South Africa, and attest that the can trip wire system works wonderfully in an urban setting as a perimeter alarm. I set up the system around my house to alert us to prowlers, and boy did it get positive results! We were able to alert the neighbourhood to intruders before issues arose.
Simple and effective....and metal cans are usually available. I suspect that in the quiet woods, even some plastic water bottles with or without pebbles in them would work. Thanks for another cool video.
Security is about tripping more levels of Paranoia against your attacker than you do against yourself. An attacker is already at level 1 paranoia, you need to take him to level 3 without missing level 2. So you need 1 ! 2 ! 3 ! then something nasty within 15 seconds to disorient an attacker and change advantage.
Yeah, USMC FTW! Good working technique. Already tested, works completely fine. Alright, man, time to set up my perimeter to....infinity. And the video/audio quality + teaching method is absolutely pro!Already subscribed, you can bet! Please, do keep up the good work!
Excellent video, like the tension on Para cord can come in handy on other things, have an amateur tip that a hunter told me , on most knives that have a pouch for a sharpener there is room for a small Bic lighter as a last way to make fire if need be. Thanks for the great videos.
Guys be sure to head on over to Instagram in the link description. Use #blackscouttraps in your post showing us when you set this up. Also the winner to the knife was announced there on instagram a few days ago.
When the wind blows, the cans will sound off. 2 layer system, 1 low 1 high. Trip the lower one at site with cans and bottles. High one will go off just outside your campsite with cans and wind chime system that is dragged along the ground.
Funny I watch your videos also Servival Lilly, am a fan of whatcha doin. Keep posting em, you can come to Northern Colorado in the Rockies an winter camp I do it every year as much as possible an test gear. Make a video of it. Would be cool
The fact that you belittle the subscribers who were excited to share their idea that "[you] had already had, now...", instead of encouraging them and adding to their enthusiasm about trip wire, shows a lot of insecurity. Video showed a failed attempt the most BASIC perimeter alarm... But Good Luck to you all and I hope the channel does well (If still active).
Had some luck with a deer alarm the other day: flex hose strung thru plastic bags. Cr^ppy looking alarm, but we only set it up at night. The alarm offers Motion and Noise, and the capability to varying the sounds by using bells, cans, or whatever. I think variety is key when dealing with deer. Like horses, they get used to things. What are your thoughts on keeping deer out of the garden?
Idea? with the new type cans having the coating on the inside could it insulate the sound some? what if you burned the cans in the fire ahead of time? maybe that would harden the metal also and possibly increase the sound slightly? Good set up 👉scout 👍
I totally clicked on this vid first pick and not knowing it was one of your vids lol the algorithms working on this end lol .doing a hi mountain sole bear hunt next week lol big thanks for this vid .
nice. Im gonna use that. real easy. im gonna be camping solo for a few weeks and I have no gun. my technique for defense against unwanted visitors is 6 or 7 premade presharpened javelins by the tent next to a large pile of baseball size rocks. and I have a steel tomahawk for close encounters. its animals, not people. if I could bring a .357 I would. but I cant.
I came here to learn something I can use during a camping trip with my family. But since our play is windy, Im thinking of using that tripwire to pull the alarm somekind of electronic alarm intead
Good try, but I'm not sure if you do it correctly though. You need to use iron cans instead of aluminum cans (e.g., beer cans). You also need to use the lid, so when you open a can, don't cut it all the way. Then, you need to put small rocks in there. Also, you should not hang more than one together. They need to have a bit of distance so that they can make more noise. If you hang all cans like that together, the noises will cancel out each other.
I've been into a guerrilla camp before and they have a similar technique. The only difference is that it squeaks making it irritating and therefore noticable.
I bet you coud make a device that holds magnets and set with string so that if the string breaks the magnets all snap together and racket inside a can.
Alexander Simon Best to keep the cans near your location and run the trip wire away from you so you have time to react. Fishing line (monofilament) would work in a pinch but it stretches. Best to use something rigid like Kevlar or synthetic fishing line.
If someone was using a torch in the night and looking to sneak up on you, they would be going slowly the fishing line would shine like a thick spiderweb! But if it’s for animals then it’s fine cos they don’t usually carry a torch!
On a serious note. I’d be looking for a natural trail made by animals, or the easiest way for a human to get through the trees & bushes. Have the cans far enough away that you can hear them clearly but that you have time to react.

You caught anyone in the last year using this?

I would paint them black and dark green. Love your videos. Keep up the great work.
3 inch sleigh bells on monofilament trip line was always a part of the camp sites perimeter . Takes no time to set up or take down.
We live in area with lots of high wind...so this may not work but good to know when we need it in other less wind area. Thank you.

"it don't need to be super loud, your not trying to warn in Australia"
Me as an Australian: Well this is fucking useless then..

Spray paint cans etc. Camo colors so they won't shine in the light.

Haven't seen this technique before 👌👍

"you're not trying to warn Australia or anything" lmao
I'm waiting on some components for a lowcost system but 100% agree, ADMs are first thing I look to setting once I've chosen a spot 👍
Really awesome tripwire system!! Happy New Year!
Funny I watch your videos also Servival Lilly, am a fan of whatcha doin. Keep posting em, you can come to Northern Colorado in the Rockies an winter camp I do it every year as much as possible an test gear. Make a video of it. Would be cool
Im gonna set this up outside my fridge and catch my roomate stealing my food! Thanks man!
Awesome technique when you have limited resources or are on the move. Thanks for making the vid.

Great vid,thanx. Can also put some pea gravel in that drink can ....Very noisy
You really might want to repost these. Excellent techniques.
Very good info. Just what I am looking for as tricks to keep the bears way. Or at least to lit me know when their coming in camp.
Once again simple and very effective 👌🇬🇧
Thanks
good job boss... as always... I even remember your air horn alarm... both will keep you alive and safe...👍👍👍👍

Great camp alarm, I will be trying this no doubt
Windlass for the win!
A really bright sencer light will frighten anything off.
hello from france bordeaux. nice video thanks to you clearely better video i see on youtube since longtime.
Nice security set up right there keep the videos coming you do good work sharing your knowledge
Sweet! Thanks buddy! Yeah
OUT-EFFIN-STANDING!!! But i might want to warn Australia, Brother Teufel Hunden. Semper Fi.
I totally clicked on this vid first pick and not knowing it was one of your vids lol the algorithms working on this end lol .doing a hi mountain sole bear hunt next week lol big thanks for this vid .
Good info.
Definitely would be loud in the woods
Effective in military, where you have awake sentry. When after long hiking, tired , fall asleep - you'll not hear it.
awesome tip thanks we used that in the army as well
Now you guys just have to see the most impressive device of all ;)
Checkout the Lockhart Tactical STATAS!
I've used something similar to this except I collected small pebbles and placed them in an old pop can.

Seen something like this in fallout 4. Good idea like it
Nice trip wire alarm setup
Great ideas here 👍🏻
Do updated bug out bag vid

Well done, carry on.
Thanks for the video.
Great idea!!!!
Thanks for sharing! Question maker of your MC jacket?
practical idea thank you for sharing
Great video thanks for the info 👍
Very smart easy to made no electric battery
Dig the videos. Need a flag. Saw em online.. look sweet
Very slick dude.
Thanks
Cool
Now , That is awesome 👌
Best camp with a portable electric bear fence. 2.4 lbs worth of huge peace of mind
haha luv it, that is so awesome,
Excelente dica!! (Like 10)
I bet you coud make a device that holds magnets and set with string so that if the string breaks the magnets all snap together and racket inside a can.
Good stuff!
That Monster can is worth10 cents in Michigan!
Nice!
awesome idea!!!
Really cool!
Wooooow!!! No entiendo muy bien el inglés pero sin duda una imagen dice mas que mil palabras, excelente idea, felicidades!!!! 👍
Add bbs to the cans
Good video 👍 good idea
made this trap where i live in mexico and cought a buffalo in back country yard, thumbs arriba
But still, someone SHOULD tell Australia..
Literally was thinking that as I read your comment below video 😂
I’m an Aussie…and trust me…we know!
Great idea
Excellant~
@BlackScoutSurvival What brand of jacket is that? and style? Thanks!!
Just make sure you wash out the cans ESPECIALLY if you use a tuna one. Otherwise it will attract bears etc
Now this is using %100 of your brain
I have never seen this or heard about this alarm i know other designs do
Just curious... Is there a certain minimum or maximum test that you use? ie. 10lb or 25lb. I've never used this stuff so no idea what to look for.
What about fishing line? Can that be used as tripwire as well? And how far away should the trap be/ the radius from where you are hiding out from?
Alexander Simon

What kind of jacket is that
What's this for?
Good idea, except the food cans will actually attract bears !!!
Had to make one of these cause a crackhead stole my trolamotor lol, he'll have quite the suprise next time
Lets all debate who said fireline first.
So, all you need to do is find a forked tree somewhere.

Improvise, adapt and over come. You’ll never make it.
LOL!

Uhh...uh.
