I tried the moat, but it overflowed into the house last week during all the rain.

Fixed it for ya!

note from the article she did have her doors locked she opened the door to check on a noise outside. Install a peephole, security camera system, etc. The door was unlocked by her, an alarm would not have been activated, now a shotgun could have been in her hands but i can't reliably hold a shotgun at the ready and open the door. So check through a window, peephole, security camera what is out there first.

My comment about the burglar alarm and locked doors was attached to another incident where a robber entered a house while the resident was asleep.

I agree with you that opening a door in the presence of a potential criminal is risky, especially for elderly women who are unarmed and alone.
