Try to get into your home with out a key. If you can make it, you can bet a burglar will too. Keep both windows and doors locked, including the garage door into the house. Burglars love this entrance as it is hidden. Use deadbolt locks on out side doors and your bedroom door. If someone gets into the house, the bedroom lock gives you time to call the po lice and/or vacate the house. When you're away from home, set indoor lights and radios on timers. Don’t leave clues around like uncollected newspapers. Don’t confront a burglar — especially at night. Even though daytime burglaries are most common, night time break-ins are most dangerous. Anyway, don’t play heroics, day or night.
