    I’ve gotta moth

    Hi All.
    10pm tonight the Disco’s alarm went off, the bonnet was up and I blamed a possum or cat noseing around.
    I shut the bonnet went back inside and the alarm goes off again, all I could find was a small moth flying around in the cabin.
    Would the moth cause the motion sensor to activate or should i look further.
    Thanks

    Alternative is to turn the sensor off. I have as sometimes I have my dogs in the back with windows down and locked (in winter not summer!)

    Like the time I parked at the back of the ninth tee at my golf clubs major competition with the windows slightly down, I could hear it all the way round the course!
