What is the best way to troll package thieves out of these options?

Release the hounds!

I saw this video where someone took the lead ball out of a 12guage slug and rigged it to go off when the package thief tried to grab it. The thief fell down like he thought he got shot for a second when he tried to steal it then he jumped up and ran for his life maybe thinking someone is shooting at hin..

Mild explosive. Not enough to cause harm but enough to scare the living shit out if them.

GPS tracker inside an inner box that will be very hard to open (so they take it home).

Share the tracking with the local police... and let them pick get a search warrant based on the tracker location and take it from there....

GPS then burn his house down.

I wouldn't spend any money on it, just put out boxes with shit or rotten eggs or something. I don't have to worry about package thieves where I live but if I did, I'd first do fake packages with garbage (shit) and second I'd sit outside with guns.

Spend all year filling a big container with shit and then leave it wrapped up on your porch, but make sure you put some round the packaging so they defo get shit on their hands.

Put your trash and junk in the boxes and let them take it away for you. Or fill it with poop.

Booby trap a package with a mixture of poo, and glitter, then add cameras and GPS tracking.💫💩 Put the porch pirates on the internet. 🙂
