Knowledge and facts about wireless home security surrey bcIs your house going to be unoccupied for even a few days while you go out of town? That is when it generally is most vulnerable to burglars breaking in. Here are several specific things to do to defend your home. * The best security for your apartment is to have a sitter at home. An apartment where someone is staying is commonly safer than a home that is not occupied. Check if you can get a relative or friend to remain at your home for the time you are traveling. * Halt your newspaper and mail delivery for the entire time you are away. A mailbox that is overflowing or piles of newspaper announces that the home is unoccupied. * If you keep a garden get someone to come in and water them. Or ensure the potted plants are not visible from outside. Untended plants are a clue that the apartment is empty. * Timers on lights and tv will help. Use light timers in more than one room. Use a natural looking sequence for lights. At dusk turn on the living room lights. At the time you go to bed set the timer to switch off living room lights and turn on the bedroom lights. If you turn tv on at 7 most days and have it on till bedtime have your timer do the same. Even with lights switched on the absence of the tv glow might indicate that your house is empty. * Arrange for a neighbor to come in and check out your apartment or home often. Windows being opened and curtains being worked signals that somebody is home. * If you live in a rented apartment notify the landlord that the house will be unoccupied. Your homeowner may want to keep an eye on it. * If you have an active alarm system make sure the apartment sitter recognises precisely how to operate it. * See that the neighbor or house sitter can contact you. Whoever is keeping tabs on the apartment must be aware of who they should contact should any problems come up.
