You can buy intrusion alarms based on various technologies at Radio Shack and other such places. If there is a single path of access to your porch, an infrared beam would be best. A horn and a strobe light would make teenage intruders beat feet and probably not come back.

This may seem like overkill for sneak thieves, but it would also be effective against more ill-intentioned night visitors.

Camera or not, you'd better lock it up. When these kids tell their buddies, you're going to have uninvited visitors beating a path to your door. :^(

You might want to hang one of your better targets on the refrigerator door.
