Here are 10 suggestions for securing your home. If you have any others or experience with any please list them.
Again if you have more ideas please share them.
- Lock all doors and windows
- Make house well lit at night
- Make it appear someone is home
- Learn to rely on neighbors (more the exception than a rule)
- Remove over grown bushes from around house especially below windows
- Barking Dog. If you don't have one post signs warning people about a dog (Beware of Dog)
- Home security system, if not in the budget place an alarm company sign or stickers in the yard
- Don't flaunt your wealth. Keep widow coverings closed and don't leave the box of a newly purchased expensive item on the curb waiting on the trash truck.
- Away from home for extended period; stop mail and news paper delivery. have someone maintain your lawn/yard and automatic interior lights
- Do NOT post on social media that you are going our fo town
Again if you have more ideas please share them.
