Answer: Adjust the camera's sensitivity and detection area. If you think that you are almost removing or decreasing or vice versa, consider moving the camera to a different location. More recommendation can be found in this article.
Additional Tip for Cameras with PIR Sensor
These cameras work optimally when it is mounted looking down somewhat and the subject of detection passes across their front. The more the subject "crosses" the front of the camera the better the detection reliability.
When placing your camera, try to avoid situations where the subject would move straight toward the camera if possible. You may need to experiment with the sensitivity settings in the app and camera placement to get the ideal setting.
