Uh, I hope you’re banning anyone with an iPhone from even getting within 10 meters of your house. Because their phone could easily just grab a list of all BT MACs (or hell, even WiFi MACs) it finds and then transmits that with its current GPS coordinates via its cell network. Doesn’t even need your network at all. And your wireless devices have to transmit their MAC addresses to work even if their not in pairing mode.

Not much I can do about that, but I can at least keep them off my network so that info isn’t associated with my IP address.
