Folks have been asking...the security camera I use is called ReoLink and is solar, has a dedicated cellular plan that costs me $10 per month ...here's a link from my Amazon page in case you want to monitor your property: amzn.to/3T4ndiZ
Hey Josh who are you using for your monthly subscription for the Reolinks? I have one on my farm and thinking of getting more but I think I’m paying more than $10

Posting is usually Required
If you’re Not, you’re Asking for Trouble.
A Groundhog/Woodchuck at the end.
I've used cuddeback cuddling cameras and can link 24 cameras on one plan. Been able to stop theives, but I like your reolink setup as well👍. Thank you for sharing!
@@robrinehart Reolink also allow a lot of cameras on one plan. The price is quite low, around a dollar a camera per month. I think Josh refers to the cellular service when he says it costs $10 a month per camera.
I know you don't want to ugly up things with the signs, but honestly I think that's what you're going to have to do. Not only for the deterrent factor, but also potential legal liability if someone gets hurt on your land, it's an additional shield for you that a person knowingly trespassed and thus took on additional responsibility for whatever happened next. You also mentioned that part of your land is not yet fenced..you need to remedy that ASAP. Finally, I don't know what the laws are there but here in Texas you can paint the fence posts purple and that has the legal standing of a combo no hunting/no trespassing sign. That might be an alternative to the ugly signs if you've got similar laws on the books there. edit: North Carolina indeed does have a purple paint law. Check it out :)
Since he's in NC, he can benefit from posting signs since NCGS 14-159 allows for the posting of signs to act as a deterrent and/or warning that the area or property is private and the trespasser should know that he/she is not welcome.
Many states, like GA where I live, posting a sign doesn't matter. In order to be charged with OCGA 16-7-21, a person must remain on the property after being told to leave by the owner, tenant, or representative before the trespassing become criminal unless there's also some monetary damage associated with the intrusion.
In Tennessee we can also use the purple blaze to mark property as a no hunting zone. If you are caught taking game from posted property without permission the penalties are the same as taking game out of season.
@@1guyin10 I need to get some purple paint and mark my property lines
I just posted about the same comments before I read yours.
Josh, All you have to do is paint purple on the trees that border your property, no signs required.
Some states allow silver as well
What is that gonna do? Lol
@@skrimper In the State of NC Putting Purple Paint on the border of your property is like putting up signs.
@@donald6427 If you do not do it the police and the Game Warden will do anything. I found that out when I caught someone on my place and they said we can not do anything due to not being posted.
@@jims3650 once you tell them to leave they have to clear out and not come back. Yes, they have to be warned by signs or orally. Take their picture if able and write the date on it so you have evidence of the warning for next time.
Josh, ALWAYS go armed! I know you don’t want an altercation but whoever is trespassing may not care if they have an altercation or not. If you go out there unarmed you very well could end up severely injured or dead. At least have the means to defend yourself. Nothing says you have to draw a weapon.
It's almost like he knows the camera is there and did his best to his his identity, u would have a better leg to stand on with no trespassing signs love what u do and watching how ur farm has grown over the years
You need some of those large homemade signs that say "YOU'RE NOT LOST! YOU ARE TRESSPASSING!
use the drone, much safer. as for the posted signs, check with your county , extra but i beleieve in most states two strips of either silver or purple paint means the same. we use that here for the same reason and it holds up in court. going threw the same thing here every year. 590 acres is hard to watch.
Buy a wireless electric bullhorn/horn speaker and place it next to your camera. When you spot someone on camera you can talk to them using the loud speaker without putting yourself at risk. Also attach and turn on LOUD SIREN MODULE TO THE HORN TO SCARE THE DEER/WILDLIFE AWAY so the hunters cannot hunt in that area when the hunters show up!
Reolink cameras have a siren and intercom functions.
@@kdegraa Oh hopefully that can solve the issue.
JOSH, Quick suggestion, set you up a drone base, have it set up under a porch AT your home etc with enough room to manuver up off the shelf / pad and then out, BEFORE you even crank up your 4 wheeler to go after them, send the drone out to spot them CLOSE UP, then if your lose them as you drive out then you would of already captured their image, you could of had the drone ON TOP of them B4 you ever cranked up the buggy.
yep, that's a good idea, he's not going to hang around if he hears a 4x4 coming and you'd need to get a location on his vehicle
Me personally I wouldnt sweat it at this point but like you said keep your eyes open around that area. Maybe he was hunting in the area and got off his track and didn't realize he was trespassing
Josh I would put up hunting by permission only from landowner the animal you saw I believe is a nutra it's an aquatic animal and they can be very destructive check with your local DNR they're in the same family as a muskrat good luck with the trespasser it sucks take the high road brother
Contact both the Game Warden and the local police. So, both authorities know what’s going on in your area. See if your neighbors having same problems with trespassers.
Absolutely. Start submitting the evidence and have a good strong case with plenty of documentation. Get the authorities involved so when you catch the individual, law enforcement will have been involved from the beginning.
Looks like you could’ve seen where they slid down the creek bank🤔
Send up the drone and look for them when you get the notice. You can get a payload release.. Fly over and once they see the drone, drop the orange paper that tells them they are on PP and to leave at once. Just an idea. :)
I would suggest a concealed pistol in those instances. That way if it does get out of hand, you have something to protect yourself Josh. But it’s not visible to the trespasser so gives the appearance of a friendly encounter. Stay safe! Wooo!!
My thoughts exactly
You could always stencil paint no tresspassing on the side of some posts or trees. That way its not so obtrusive yet its still visible.
I am not far from you, in VA. My land is hunted too. I HAD up the ugly signs, but hunters tore them down. I had game cameras, but they smashed them. Other option is the horizontal purple paint lines on trees. I don't love that idea either. One day, I saw a hunter deep on my land, as I was feeding my animals. I hollered out, "Please make this your last trip on my land." He flipped me off. I had dog food, he had his hunt gear. Yup, no argument. Then, there are the half-starved hunt dawgs running the land, chasing goats... In short, I feel your pain!
Learn the 3 S's. Shoot, shovel & shut up.
That guy was armed with a loaded crossbow. I hope you were armed too. Stay safe man.
In Texas you can mark the trees or fence posts or both with people paint to outline your property. Is a little more aesthetically pleasing than the no trespassing signs. Good luck.
Good morning Josh , as a fellow outdoorsman there are so many apps you could access that show you property lines and provide owners phone numbers to ask permission, even if you’re tracking a wounded animal. I can’t imagine how frustrating it is to have people trespassing your property any time of the year!
I've never had a prosecuted t passer return
You should have sent Mrs Stoney Ridge to take care of that issue. ..
Yes I always try to deescalate
But I would keep some type of firearm in your utv just in case cuz it may be more than one person.
We use to catch several years ago! Had some cut fence, had a guy loading his van with field corn to sell for sweet corn, snowmobiles on wet snow on a wheat field, had one shoot a pheasant right behind our feedlot, it got out of hand to where we patrolled it! You get em
I caught a couple of guys trespassing on my property during deer season a few years ago. I spotted them on my security system (similar to Josh’s). I saw that they were armed so I grabbed my AR and plate carrier. I called the sheriffs department on the way out to get a cruiser rolling my way. When I con fronted these morons they claimed I was trespassing on their property and I needed to leave before they called the police. I told them the sheriffs department was already on the way. When the deputies (friends of mine) arrived the idiots still tried to say it was their property. It got pretty heated for a few minutes but they finally admitted they were trespassing and both were arrested. One was charged with possessing a firearm under disability (convicted felon), the other guy was charged with criminal trespassing with a firearm. Im sure if I had gone out there unarmed I probably wouldn’t have come home.
@@funnyfarmdad9997 If lie to police is that an offense.
No tracks? The guy fell down the bank! There has to be some sign.
Interesting how he’s out there with a big jacket and hood up, never turns so you can see his face. Almost like he knew the camera was there??
Looks about the size of Josh.
It was stoney ridge farmer looking for video views
Here In Texas we use purple paint on fence post to alert people of trespassing. I think in North Carolina my friend used purple paint also but on trees making a vertical line
yep...purple paint is there...trespassing signs are up in the entrances of the property but these people aren't law abiding ..they are lawless disrespectful scum
Hey Josh, you mentioned it being black powder season but he was definitely caring a crossbow. Was he poaching? I’d care a gun, it’s better to have and not use then to be with out. Keep up they good work, the farm looks great
Some states have a duel season with black powder and archery and some states even allow jr and sr hunters to use regular firearms in a early season
But I do agree the person should of at least asked for permission before entering any part of private property
He’s got a coat on like it’s winter and it wasn’t orange and ur in a tshirt and u took the slowest ride u had on the farm lol
Yeah something 🐟 going on.
Looks like the trespasser was trying to hide his identity the way he was carrying himself, and he was also bow hunting which means he intended to be quiet while he was trespassing. Always take your own protection. I'd most definitely finish up your fence line and or post signs and the purple paint.
Love the Reolink Cameras you shared a couple years ago.
Hi.... Josh nice to see you, thank you for showing your video homestead 👋 bye 👋 bye 👋 bye 👋 👕🐔🐓🐣🐥🐕🐈🐐🐄🐖🐝🌱🏡🎥👍👍👍
Hey Josh that critter is a groundhog , you should start trapping them asap. They will destroy your pastures and may cause a cow to break its leg.
If you can't get the game warden out then you can attach a speaker near the camera so you can turn it on when your camera trips for a hunter so you can tell them they are trespassing.
camera has a built in speaker...but unless they hang out under the camera you won't have time to catch them and talk...fyi they know they are trespassing for sure...just the same as if you went out in a parking lot and got in someone else's car...these folks know what they are doing
Notice that the trespasser wasn't wearing any orange. They knew they were trespassing and absolutely didn't want to be seen doing it.
GOOD catch, I missed that !
Most states now hunters do not need to wear orange. Not sure about NC
I'm just thinking that Wranglerstar wouldn't investigate a hunter without a full plate carrier, night vision and the backing of his entire posse of like-minded individuals all on their baofeng radios..., lol 🤪
Hey brother. Stay safe out there.
That mysterious animal looked like a ground hog to me.
I have the same problem. We paint purple onto our trees and fence posts. Purple paint means “No Trespassing and No Hunting”. In Missouri.
looks like a bear cub there is another one in front probably two cubs following a mother.
Several things seem odd to me. The said trespasser is wearing what looks like overalls and jacket w/ hoodie, but your in a tshirt.
The shadows from trees don't seem to be anywhere near the same time. And there is no time stamp on the trespasser clip
You might not catch him at 13 mph - ELECTRIC IS SILENT
It was mentioned before, use the purple paint to mark your property boundaries.
yep...it only works if folks respect it
Could have been a deer dressed as a hunter with all those deer prints.
Might just be a guy that got miss placed. If he was trespassing on purpose I think u would of seen him or you will see him again. They joys of owning land good luck Josh
*Josh, That person is hunting with a cross bow and it was loaded. So be danged careful when approaching said hunter. Put signs up that can be seen day & night. If said hunter got lost, then they will spot the signs. If a animal is hurt and crossed into your land, then said hunter should come see you, and you both can find said animal and put it down, if it can not be saved.*
OK. Bow hunting in camos-got it. I have a vision problem right now and I didn’t pick up on the crossbow.
Set up a tree stand and cut through the bottom 2/3s of the top three ladder rungs. Make sure it's in the camera view.
NO don't cut through it, but maybe have some made of a different wood
Rub poison ivy all over the stand
Hey Josh, not sure if anyone's mentioned it yet but I'd put my money on those things being Nutria.
He definitely didn't want you to know his presence or hear him with that bow. A drone scan from up high gets a quick birds-eye view of the property.
that looked like a capybara. i think they got released int louisiana a decade or 2 ago maybe they have made there way all the way to south cakalaki
Adding to someone else’s drone comment see if a infrared thermal imaging drones are inexpensive enough to be practical. You can spot a trespasser and wildlife much easier than waiting for some motion.
That was you not a trespasser . LOL
Looked like he was holding a crossbow to me.
I'd have sent the drone over Josh...cheaper than the hospital bill an arrow would cause.
Stay safe.
D.
Josh,
I saw a news story about people coming across a wooden post painted purple; it means no trespassing, and it is legal. So, set some wooden posts and paint the top two feet purple.
I sure hope you are carrying while you are out to confronted someone you know is armed. Be safe!
There are usually alternative posting methods. In Alabama, purple paint stripes on boundary trees is legal for posting. Without postings, any legal recourse is hindered even through natural domain rights are in place. Postings simply remove the “ I didn’t know” statements. If you plan future prosecutions, POST YOUR PROPERTY IR CONTINUE TO WASTE YOUR TIME AND FRUSTRATIONS.
Maybe the channel owner was in the video.
Post your property. Use Purple paint or post signs. Without posting all you can do is ask them to leave. The Police will not arrest them if the property is not posted. It is not considered trespassing unless they climb over a fence/gate or walk on a posted area. They can always claim they did not know it was not posted they thought it was public land. I would of had a firearm. I carry a Glock 26 everyday on my farm. I would of not had it drawn. I also carry a AR15 in 300 Blackout this time of year on my ATV. I have foxes and coyotes.
Always that one guy! Damn people. Get ‘em Josh
Dude looked like he slid down the bank would have thought you could have seen that. The critter looks like a piglet, but you definitely would see signs of that, I wanted to say muskrat without a tail but it would be the biggest one ever, curious!!
Good luck chasing th away Josh
I understand the need for security and protection from trespassers. My question is how do you feel about someone that shot a deer off your property and they were tracking a shot deer and not abandoning it? I am not saying that is what happened in this instance because I have no idea hare far from your property line this incursion was detected. It is simply hypothetical.
It is amazing how even seemingly decent people will trespass, as if they have a right on someone else’s land. As for the animal, I am going to guess badger, or maybe a really big ground hog. Badgers often tend to be darker like that mystery creature.
I put up an interior 10,000 volt hot wire about a foot away from my existing fence around the whole property sucks to have to do it but the folks trespassing were spreading the fence to come in and fish my ponds and they would leave it that way easily letting my calves step through and get hurt trying to figure out how to get back in. Pisses me off to no end the disregard for landowners
Hey Josh thank you for the video and my opinion I think you should do is get one more camera and put it next to that deer stand because what I think this guy was doing was scoping things out and yeah he's going to be back I guarantee it like you said and I agree he'll be back woo
Signs might be ugly but that’s the only protection you have from free loaders! Signs might be ugly but they give you legal strength! We have many acres and it’s all posted
I have signs and they still hunt my land. Even after evening told repetitively to not hit my land
Here in WA state you do not have to post No Trespassing signs. Although I have them posted, people seem to think it doesn’t apply to them. It’s frustrating and irritating. I also end up cleaning their trash afterwards. Unfortunately, where my property is there is no cell service, nor is there decent innnerwebs. So a camera such as that wouldn’t work for me. So I feel your pain, sir.
I have heard both sides in WA from the sheriff and game warden. I wish they'd get their rules figured out. I have signs posted all over and you're right it never stops anyone. What I do now when a camera or sensor alerts me to a trespasser is I first go find their vehicle and block it and then call the sheriff. The sheriff prefers this way so he doesn't have to go into the woods. Hehe
Concealed carry is always wise.
The camera has great resolution. Hope that you don't have any serious trespassing issues in the future.
Be careful never know when someone will shoot ask questions later have a great day
In Texas, you only need to mark the corners or your property with posts with Purple painted on the top to alert hunters there is no hunting allowed in the area
Hate trespassing, especially when they walk right by my signs.
I love my cellular trail cams, keeps my eyes on my property as well. As long as you don't see him again no sweat, but if it keeps happening call your game warden.
You said its black powder season but that guy has a crossbow.
Doesn't want to be heard!
Maybe he has permission to hunt the neighbors farm? Without a fence or sign he may be innocent. Also if you want to find a trespasser, don't drive the absolute loudest vehicle you own lol
Ride a horse and bring the Germans with you...
what you might need is remote control 12 gauge blank warning deturants ..... hope you ge it figerd out .... just never wander out in areas with known poachers unarmed
I would fence the entire property, that may help with the trespassing.
they'll just cut the fence...it's a sad state of affairs and people don't seem to care anymore
@@StoneyRidgeFarmer Ya, I know I've had fence cut, signs destroyed, cattle killed, things stolen, but without fence and or signs, you don't have a chance to keep people off your property. I have people walk right past the signs, they just don't get it.
@@StoneyRidgeFarmer will they cut multi strand electric with a strong energizer?
Josh, Always bring a pistol, just because you do not want a altercation does not mean the intruder is not willing to force one. You are on your own property, and I "am pretty sure NC" allows concealed carry on your own property with out license. I agree with you, just ask the person to leave and not come back. However, it is better to have some sort of protection.
Interesting! you mentioned this time of year wear blaze orange… that guy did not have one piece of blaze… he definitely being sneaky … just a hunch, but i think he’s been there before … best of luck on confronting… you said it best “with kind hands’
Josh that animal at the onset looked to be a muskrat!! That's my guess
I respect your desire for privacy, security, and the right to restrict access to private land. I find that your search for the trespasser a bit overly dramatic, but it’s your land. It would appear that your quest to find this person is like looking for a particular fish in a lake. Consider how he got to your land and place your cameras to identify him/ his vehicle accordingly. Just a thought.
In Illinois where we lived we had trespassers who would come through to pick mushrooms and we were out looking ourselve. I yeld out to my wife and said you want me to shoot them well they took off like a bat out of hell.
I’ve caught a couple. I have 37 acres in SE Pa. It is crazy how people believe they can do whatever they want. The police here took care of two poachers/trespassers.
The game warden took care of another guy. That guy will never legally hunt again and weapon seized.
But - I can’t imagine how you keep an eye on your farm. I grew up on a 140 acre farm and my dad used to walk the land. Even in his seventies. Tough old man.
In North Carolina all you have to do is pant a purple stripe on the tree to let people know no hunting. I would go around your property line and spray every so often to make a perimeter.
AFAIK the only tailless mammal you have in Carolina is the Capybara?
Although you might have something else that got its tail chewed off
He never crossed the creek if you never found tracks….Sounds like to me
Ok Josh, do I even need to say anything...LOL! Not even man-eating donkeys!?!
In Missouri all you need is purple markings for no trespassing. My guess is he may have been trailing a deer. But st that he should still have asked. Place a note on cardboard back where jes at letting him know hes been caught. Besides hes carrying a cross bow. Most states that stuff is out of season during gun season.
Nice Place
Josh, always go armed, you can be friendly as all get out but if something goes wrong you'll be able to defend yourself.
Here's one way to keep trespasser's at bay. Put up a couple outdoor wireless speakers around your property. And connect them with a motion sensor. When trespasser is detected. It plays DELIVERANCE DUELING BANJO'S 😜 You got a right purtty mouth there boy!
Put a small sign that says “Smile, you’re on video!”, just so they look around for it? Then you’ve got their face.
you really need to put signs up to legally protect yourself if someone was to get hurt on your property you will spend thousands of dollars for legal defense even though the trespasser was entirely at fault. this happened to a friend of mine. protect yourself, remember nice guys always finish last it's the world we live in
Are hunters required to wear blaze orange while hunting?
You are correct about approaching them unarmed.
I think your state has the purple paint law to post your land. It can’t be removed by trespassers is more cost effective and easier to identify boundaries. Need to check it out.
As much as I agree with you that No Trespassing signs are ugly in most places you need them to prove that the person on your land knew they were not supposed to be there. Does North Carolina recognize the purple paint law? That is not as bad as the no trespassing signs.
Good luck
Josh i have a good friend that's a game warden in tn
and he said all land in TN is automatically posted by the state signs or no signs
He has a crossbow in his hands. Be safe out there. Can't stand poachers or trespassers, we do things different up here in Michigan. God Bless y'all. John V. Michigan
I'd be tearing down that stand, for one thing.. 🤨🤬
In VA you can spray a silver or purple oblong on trees to signify it’s posted. Check your regs for that if you don’t want signage.
