Easy to use high resolution night vision security camera for non tech savvy 90 yr old

I'd be tempted to stick a couple of these in the garden as well, whoever's doing it sounds like a scummy piece of shoot if they know it's an old lady living alone.

A update just for completeness. My brother stayed the weekend as he was going for mothers day anyway and the bloke did not turn up. I organised a firm to go in today and do a survey and quote. In consultation with my siblings I am going to kill a few more birds with the same stone. As well as cameras back and front I will get a panic alarm system installed for her which she can press and it will alert us and also a movement sensor so we know if my mother has not moved around the house for x hours. Going to cost around 1200 just for 3 cameras , I don't know how much for the other stuff but its worth it for a bit of peace of mind of mind.
As its most probably a local guy he will hear of the cameras going up and not bother risking getting caught and leave her alone.
Personally I would like to know who the low life is but then again I might get myself in trouble if I have a word with him.

I'm sure there would be plenty of pest control (ratters) that would be happy to do some vermin control!.

i have eufy spotlight camera , anke cameras and recording box and a ring doorbell
imo the ring has the worse picture but sends alerts to phone and you can talk but monthly fee and battery to change
the eufy spotlight has a lot better picture also sends alerts to phone , you can talk , set alarm off and no monthly fee
the anke cameras and box very good picture and can access from phone but no alerts - just continous recording then overlaps after couple of weeks / depending how many cameras and settting
out of them 3 i would say eufy fits the bill best - just like putting up spotlight then connecting to internet /leave it alone
i am no expert by a long shot but thats what i would use for my mum

Excellent night vision, 4 cameras to one hub with own router plugged into my Vodafone hub (can be fun wireless, too, if you want.)
You can run it all remotely via an app.
