Is your apartment or home to be empty for days or weeks while you go on tour? That is when your home is most susceptible to thieves breaking in. Here are several specific things that will help you.
* The best way to defend your apartment is to have a house sitter. Having someone stay at your home is very likely safer than an uninhabited apartment. Try arranging for a friend or someone you trust to remain at your home while you are away.
* Stop your mail and newspaper delivery when you go away. An overflowing mailbox announces that the home is empty.
* If you maintain a garden have them watered by someone. Or shift the potted plants where no one can see them. Untended plants are evidence that no one is home.
* Put the lights and tv on timers. Several rooms should have timers on lighting. Use a natural looking sequence for lights. The lights in the living room should switch on at sunset. Subsequently put out the lights in your living room and turn on the bedroom lights.
If you normally turn on the tv at 7 pm and it stays on till bed time have your timer do the same. Even with lights switched on the tv being turned off may lead someone to suspect that the home is empty.
* See if a neighbor will come in and check out your house frequently. Windows and curtains being opened are indications that the house is inhabited.
* If you stay in a rented house let the landlord know that you will be away. The homeowner may want to watch over it now and then.
* If you have a burglar alarm installed see to it that the the person who is doing the house sitting recognizes how it is to be worked.
* Ensure that you leave your contact details with the house sitter. The person checking up on the apartment should know exactly who to call should any issue crop up.
