As suggested aim the sensor down more.

If you have a fixed position PIR begin by placing varying width strips of black PVC tape at the TOP of the Sensor window - this usually reduces the long distance pickup range.
A bit of experimentation masking with tape will usually find just the range you need

push the sensor down a bit pal
