2. Trailcam or Stand - If you don't intend to hunt the immediate area, get some blood meal from the local lawn and garden center and sprinkle it out on the ground in a wide circle around the stand. Blood meal is used to keep deer and other herbivores out of gardens. After it has been out for a day or so, the smell is pretty much beyond the human nose, but not deer. It will attract coyotes and other carnivores to the area though.

RE: Be Creative!
Reading this thread has me apreciating my hunting grounds. I've never even seen another hunter, or his gear (I hunt on state land 5 min from my home).
However, If I did have a problem with another hunter leaving his gear, there is a simple solution. Fill up soda bottles with piss (take a week to do it), cap them and bring them into the woods. dig a small hole and leave the tip of the un-capped pissbottle above ground. deer will vacate the premises for months.

RE: Be Creative!
destroying the other equipment....seriously?[&:]
You guys are either
A. wasteful
B. Childish
Take it with a note that tells them where they can come get it and why you took it. tell them never to trespass again, next time you will press charges. 90% of the time the tresspasser wont even call and claim his illegally placed goods....so yours to keep until he does. But it still leaves room for people to make up for honest mistakes. Maybe the guy is new to the neighbors property and got confused on the lines. Placed equipment on the wrong side of a fence as an honest mistake and comes back to find it smashed to pieces or cut up? How would you feel. Even if the guy is purposely poaching, why cut up perfectly good equipment? Take it telling him all he has to do is show up to get it back..and keep it until he does. put it to use, dont stomp 400 dollars into smitherines to prove a point. And if you still feel the need, PM me and Ill pay shipping for that equipment before you do.
Sure press charges if you catch them after a warning. Sure take the equipment...but leave a note and dont smash it to pieces. Evolve past the caveman banging rocks stage, lol.
But on a liter note...the joker card is genius ever since ledgers last performance in batman..that could creep someone out big time to find a joker card dangling from the tree at their equipment...theyd be haulin ass outta there lookin over their shoulder.[8D]
