Here’s what you can do to keep your home safe:
*Keep all windows closed and doors locked at night and when you’re not in your home.
*Keep any keys away from the front door to prevent key-hooking methods through your letter box.
*Try not to post on social media that you’re away or on holiday – don’t advertise an empty home!
