      I am encountering a problem with spiders and their web.

      During the day the spider's web is not visible, but when dark comes the IR
      lamps will light up the web because it reflects light. Even though there
      is no wind the spider's web will continue to move in front of the cam causing false
      alerts and triggering recording.

      Practically the program will record all night.

      Thank you and look forward for your help.

        You can use the masking features in Security Monitor Pro to block out the area the web covers.

        If the spiders web is created directly in front of the camera, the easiest way to take care of this problem is to remove the spiders web. After removal, use the spray product called 'cobweb eliminator' to prevent the spiders from putting up a new web in that area.
