Tips and facts about video surveillance with h 263
Is your house going to be empty for sometime while you leave town? That is when it generally is vulnerable to looters breaking in. Here are several things you can do.
* The best deterrant is to have a someone occupying the house. An apartment where someone is staying is normally safer than an unoccupied apartment. Try arranging for a trusted friend or relative to remain at your apartment while you are away.
* Temporarily halt newspaper and mail while you are away. Untouched mail and newspaper advertises that nobody is home.
* If you maintain potted plants that are visible from the road have them maintained by someone. Or Else shift the potted plants where no one can see them. Untended and wilted plants are an indication that the house is not occupied.
* It is a good idea to use timers on lights and tv. Several rooms should have timers on lighting. The timings for lights should look natural. The timer should turn living room lights on at sundown. When you normally go to bed set the timer to switch off living room lights and the lights in the bedroom should be switched on.
If you turn on tv at 7 pm every day and it is always on till you go to bed have your timer do the same. Though the lights may be switched on the absence of the tv glow can be a sign that the house is uninhabited.
* Arrange for a neighbor to drop in on your house frequently. Windows being opened and curtains being worked gives evidence that the home is occupied.
* If you live in a rented apartment you may want to let your landlord know that you will be out of station. Your homeowner may want to check up on the home sometimes.
* If you have installed a home security system make it a point to see that the the person who is doing the house sitting recognises just how to use it.
* Ensure that you leave your contact details with the house sitter. The person watching over the house should know who they should fill in should a problem crop up.
