Plan for Summer Safety
As summer approaches, I would like to provide you with a few travel safety tips. As we roll into the summer months, and we began to travel, here are a few tips you can remember to help you have a more enjoyable travel season.
We here at the Crime Prevention Unit want to ensure your home is safe while you are out of town enjoying yourselves. One tip is to make it look like you never left. Keep shades and blinds in their normal positions. Stop mail and newspaper delivery service, or ask a neighbor to pick them up every day. Put several household lights on timers so they turn on and off at appropriate times. Arrange to have the grass mowed while you’re gone. Make sure all your door and window locks are in working order. Activate your home alarm (if you have one). You might even leave a radio on, or put it on a timer. Ask a neighbor to park in your driveway overnight. Try to give the impression to others that someone is home.
Have a great week and stay safe! As always, please feel free to call me or email me.
Thank you,
Deputy Brian Heischuber
