Officer Reveals Home Security Blunder Making You a Burglary Target
Leaving blinds or curtains open at night is the problem. People think no one sees in the dark, but burglars love this. They easily scope out houses because the light inside makes it easy to see in, and they aren’t easily noticed from outside.
Burglars quickly spot valuables left out, and they check for security systems, too. They even count how many people live there, watching for patterns and weaknesses.
Open curtains show expensive electronics, handbags, and car keys. Burglars also see visible alarms or cameras. They can guess if someone is home or not.
They study door placements and blind spots, too, finding the best ways to get in. Burglars do not randomly break into homes.
They observe each property first, seeking signs of an easy target. Open curtains show everything inside, helping them choose if it’s worth the risk.
Close your blinds or use blackout curtains to hide valuables out of sight from windows; this stops burglars from seeing them. Install motion-sensor lights outside to deter people near your windows. These simple changes can keep your home safe.
