An unconventional approach may not be a bad idea. Years ago I stopped at a convenience store to borrow a water bucket to fill up my car radiator. The bucked had something written on it with a big black marker. After I finished using the bucket, I asked the attendant why they wrote what they did on the bucket. She said they had had a problem with people stealing their buckets, but ever since she wrote that sentence on the bucket, no one has stolen it. It read, "If you steal this water bucket, you will be cursed for life."
