As we head into the months of the year when there is more darkness, something to be aware of is the risk of burglaries. Nights that are longer and darker gives burglars more opportunities, and you should be aware of this so that you can decrease your risk of being a victim of burglary.
If you don’t already have security lighting, this is a good time to get some installed. Place it around your property, especially at points that are particularly dark or hard to see, as well as potential access points like around doors and windows.
As well as your house, you should also make sure that other buildings are secure like sheds and garages as these are a prime target for burglars. High value things like tools and bikes are often stored in them and this is an attractive prospect for a burglar.
