| Burglary Prevention Tips For The Holidays |

|
The holidays, they’re right around the corner! So it’s time to start planning those holiday vacations but unfortunately, you and me are not the only ones planning for the holidays…our local bad guys are as well.
1. Give your house key to someone you trust and ask them to keep an eye on your property. Asking someone to draw your curtains in the evening and open them in the morning can be a good way to make your house appear occupied, and detract the attention of burglars.
2. Ensure that all windows and doors are locked and secure.
3. Invest in plug-in timers to operate your lights, as they will give the illusion that somebody is home.
4. If you don't already have one, look into the possibility of getting a security alarm for your home. If you can't afford that, cheaper options are available, such as smaller individual alarms which can be placed on windows.
5. Whilst probably the more expensive option, security cameras are a fantastic idea. Even if they are not working cameras, the presence of them can deter burglars.
6. Leave a car on your driveway, or outside your house. Again, this will make it more difficult for a burglar to decipher if the house is occupied or not; thus decreasing chances of a break-in.
