1. Night Time Break Ins Aren't the Best Time
The last thing a criminal wants is to encounter anyone at home. Daytime hours are when people are away usually which makes a perfect time to break in. The most popular time for a break in is between 12-3PM.
2.They Know When You Aren't Home
Wait to post those vacation photos when you return home. Many robberies happen when others know or see your schedule online.
3. They Don't Like Your Security Practices
Homes without a security system are about 300% more likely to be targeted for break ins. Tricks that make you look like you're home work well.
4. Shrubs and Architecture Make Great Hiding Spots
Keep your plants trimmed so criminals can't hide behind them. More and more door front deliveries are being stolen too. Be sure to have a neighbor pick up your package if you know you won't be home to retrieve it. Fed Ex has a program to pick up yoir packages at a local close Walgreens. Check with them about a solution that will work for you.
5. Don't Leave Valuables in the Open.
Keep all of your expensive toys, computers, and jewelry out of plain site. Don't have a calender sitting out marked for when you will be on vacation.
