The overnight lights in front of your house are essential in making thieves feel uneasy and move on. With the LED low consumption lightbulbs, it is not a big expense to have them turned on overnight. We’ve received some emails from residents whose streets are black pitch at night, and they associated that with frequent robberies in the area. Set your lights on a timer to keep the house brighter. It is a small investment that can have a big impact on the overall safety of your house and your neighbourhood.
Don’t forget about the 9pm routine– take a tour around your property, check if you locked the cars on the drive, check all the doors and windows, and don’t make life easy for the bad guys. Let’s all stay safe and protect each other.
