I find that rogue poopers are most effectively addressed with loitering munitions. It's well known that immediate feedback is critical in animal conditioning.


How about a small laser with enough power for a 100ms burst in the non-visual spectrum that vaporizes 1mm radius, 0.5mm depth of protein, through 1-5cm depth of hair?

No sense sacrificing any hardware. Zero resource attrition and imperceptible evidence of action is the name of the game.

Match that with a spot of sound out of human hearing range and you can clear the enemy of its own accord far beyond your legal and overt action spheres.

If a close neighbor’s unit stays clear but expresses its dismay regarding warning sounds too loudly, well, this works for that too.

We are talking about nuisance bears and moose, right?


I lost a little chunk of flesh to a pulsed laser, didn't even know I was injured immediately-- the wound didn't hurt until later.

Clearly the solution is laser ignition of napalm-- don't want to accidentally catch the drone on fire, so the laser can be timed to fire once the stream is clear of it.


> laser ignition of napalm

Now we’re talking! Unfortunately I couldn’t figure out how to deploy something as viscous as napalm through my sprinkler system. I’ve been reduced to dropping it from a helicopter, the old school way.


Four words: Diesel engine fuel injection.
