Safeguarding Your Home From Intruders
Unfortunately, home burglaries happen and the only way to prevent them from occurring is to take some preventive action. Rather than leaving your home vulnerable, follow these helpful tips for securing your home:
- Whenever going on vacation, do not broadcast your home’s vacancy, no matter how excited for the trip you may be. A public announcement of vacancy, especially on your social media pages, is a surefire way to experience an unwanted visitor.
- Valuables should never be in plain sight. This may mean opting for more blinds and drapes.
- Make sure to dispose of large boxes of expensive purchases immediately by cutting them up into smaller pieces or criminals will know there is likely an expensive new flat screen that is lacking insurance waiting for them.
- Keeping your yard in tip-top shape is important as it makes it harder for burglars to hide in your untrimmed shrubbery.
- Most importantly, befriending your neighbors is important as they will have your back and you will have theirs.
