Arlo Pro Will not dectect motion very Well

I had to tilt camera in front so that it does not detect motion of car, but will not always detect when someone is walking to the front of my house. Also when I go towards the back it will not detect me. I have both set at 100%. Sometimes they will be triggered by wasps? Why?

Is the motion from people side to side or directly at the camera? The best detection is side to side.

Cachi1,

It looks like from your screenshots that the range at which you are trying to detect motion could be an issue. The best area for motion detection is 5 feet to 20 feet. Taje a look at this article for tips on positioning for best performance: How do I position my Arlo Wire-Free or Arlo Pro Wire-Free camera?
