Is your home going to be empty for sometime while you holiday? That is when it tends to be vulnerable to break ins. Here is what and ideas to deal with it.
* The most advisable solution is to get someone staying at home. A house where someone is staying is commonly safer than a home or apartment that is unoccupied. See if you can get a friend or someone you trust to stay at home for the time you are away.
* Temporarily halt mail delivery and newspaper delivery when you go away. A full mailbox or newspaper piled up tells potential burglars that the home is empty.
* If you maintain potted plants that are visible from the road ensure that someone waters them. Alternatively shift the potted plants where they are not visible from the road. Plants wilting from lack of water are evidence that the house is empty.
* Timers on lights and tv will help. Use light timers in more than one room. The lights should be switched on and off in a natural sequence. For example turn on the living room lights at sunset. When you normally go to bed set the timer to switch off living room lights and the lights in your bedroom should turn on.
If you commonly switch on tv at 9 and it stays switched on till its time for you to turn in the timer must follow those timings. Even with lights switched on the absence of the tv's light shining through might give away that this is an empty house.
* Find out if a neighbor will agree to visit your house frequently. Doors and windows being worked indicate that the home is inhabited.
* If you stay in a rented house tell the landlord that the house will be empty. The houseowner may want to check on it.
* If you use an alarm system see to it that the the person who is doing the house sitting is familiar with how it is to be worked.
* Make certain that you leave your contact details with the house sitter. Whoever is keeping tabs on the apartment should be aware of who they should notify should a problem crop up.
