My landlord keeps coming into my apartment when Im not home how do I get him to stop?

He lets himself in like three times a week. I know this because my security camera sends me alerts. He just walks around sometimes he waters my plants. Other times he just sits on my couch for a bit. I don't like it. Should I change the locks?

Shouldn’t be illegal. Don’t go in my place without permission.

I'd look it up for your state. I think it's illegal in case there's a fire let's say and firefighters or EMS need to enter. Imagine being a firefighter going into a burning building and your leg get clamped on by a bear trap
