Worried about secret cameras or roommates stealing your food or want to spy on something? Go full James Bond

You don’t need Q cranking out Bond-ready watch-lasers to dabble in some small-scale espionage. Whether you’re out to nab the family snack ­burglar who’s been swiping your Cheez-Its, or want to ensure your Airbnb host doesn’t turn you into an unwilling internet video star, these spy tools will help you dig up the dirt you ­desire.

3. Track your stuff

If you’re worried about someone grabbing your duffel bag from your gym locker, consider a BrickHouse Security Spark Nano 5.0 GPS Tracker. This battery-powered device will emit a signal for up to two weeks on a single charge. Monitor it via Google Maps, or watch for a text if it moves outside a designated area—just remember, trailing people covertly is a no-no.

4. See in the dark

The smartphone-powered Flir One camera captures what’s normally invisible to the naked eye: infrared light emitted by heat. In short, it lets you see like a rattlesnake—or the Predator. Use it to catch thieving roommates swiping your food under cover of darkness. Then, once you’re do
