Many people in his comment section told him how getting a security camera would not be the fix-all solution to all his farm challenges.

While some asked him to go spiritual, others said that he should install a bell to scare any trespassing movement on the property.

Apart from stealing his plantain, the man said that they also carted his generator used on the farm.
