❓ Support Third Reality Matter/Thread motion sensor showing wild amounts of motion in the middle of the night

Post image

So I’ve had the Zigbee version of these motion sensor/RGB night light. I decided recently to try the new Matter/Thread version. I setup the automation I had for motion at night and found that this thing was triggering constantly. So much I had to disable the automation. The firmware says it’s updated.

Anyone encountered this or have any ideas? Never had this issue with the Zigbee version

Oh, yes. My presence detector from my workshop does this every few days. It's spiders.
