I came home to my apartment tonight (it's a 3 bedroom apt) and all the doors to all the rooms were open. I called my parents to see if maybe one of them stopped by to pick some things up since they're moving into a house and I'm getting my own apartment, and they said they never came over. I went all thru the rooms and it doesn't look like anything has been touched or taken. I know I didn't open those doors, so I'm thinking someone from the complex office came in here without me knowing it because the door was locked when I left this morning and my family and I are the only ones who have keys to it except for the office. And our lease doesn't have a clause in it that allows them to show the apartment off when we're not here or without our permission. And I have no solid proof that they've been in here.

So my question is, is there a way I can set up some booby traps that will catch whoever is coming in here, and what kind of booby traps? I am thinking of setting up my computer camera to record images if there's movement, but I'm not quite sure how to do it, and I want to scare the living hell out of whoever is coming in here when I'm not home. Please give me some suggestions because I don't like the fact that these people are coming into my home without my permission.

This is what I would do...

I balance some pots or pans on top of the bedroom doors (left sligtly open, of course) so that when they are opened by your unsuspecting intruder, they fall to the floor in a horribly loud crash. When you get home, if any of the pots are on the floor, you'll know that someone's opened the door. Leave notes in them also saying that you know someone's been in the apartment and that you're going to call the police! That should warn them off!
