Inside story on k9 alarm systems
Is your house going to be unoccupied for even a few days while you travel on vacation? That is when your home tends to be most vulnerable to burglars breaking in. Here is a bunch of things to help harden your home against burglaries.
* The best way to defend your apartment is to have someone stay at your apartment. Having someone stay at home is commonly safer than a house that is empty. Try arranging for a trusted friend or relative to stay at your house while you are go away.
* Temporarily stop newspaper and mail while you are away. Mail and newspapers lying around announces that the home is unoccupied.
* If you have potted plants visible from outside ask someone to maintain them. Or Else shift the potted plants where no one can see them. Plants dying from lack of care tell passersby that the apartment is empty.
* Timers on lights and tv will help. Use light timers in more than one room. Set the timers to make the light sequence look natural. For example turn on the living room lights at sunset. Around the time your retire put out the lights in your living room and the lights in your bedroom should turn on.
If you usually turn the tv on at 8 pm and have it on till bedtime set the timer accordingly. The lights may be on but the absence of the tv may indicate to outsiders that no one is home.
* Get a neighbor to drop into your place often. Windows and curtains being opened are indications that the apartment or home is occupied.
* If you rent the apartment it may be useful to tell the landlord that you are going away for a few days. The houseowner may want to check up on the home sometimes.
* If you have installed an alarm of protection system make sure the housesitter is familiar with exactly how to operate it.
* Make certain that the neighbor knows how to contact you. The person keeping an eye on the house should know who they should call should any issue crop up.
