You could always do what I do, when confronted with the same problem back in Alaska.
Fry up a pound of bacon and let it cool. Set the cooked bacon aside for later consumption. Pick a strategic location in your favorite neighbors yard to pour the spent bacon bits and fat! Do it a few hours before they go to work!
A hungry bear can smell that $hit a mile away!
Close the door and just listen up...you'll know when the neighbor discovers the bear!
