You would have to use an infared type game camera but the IR will still glow red on most models giving it away. There are some newer ones out that do not glow as red. Down side on IR cameras is the pics are very blury to me. You would have to hide it very well to keep it from getting stolen also. Do you have any lighting at these places and electricty?

I have a HC600 which is a small step down and I am amazed at how good it can capture a lic # at night.

Cuddeback NoFlash helped catch my burglar a few years ago. With a little help we were able to zoom in and get the plate number. The IR flash will only reflect the license plate at night but at least let you know what kind of vehicle to be looking for. By the way this guy is now serving 15yrs.
