Lock all doors and windows, and secure any garage or shed. If you have an alarm system, set the alarm and ensure that the key holder will be available.
The Royal Newfoundland Constabulary is reminding homeowners of the importance of protecting personal property. Historically, the months of June, July and August have the highest reported incidents of residential break and enters in RNC jurisdictions. Lock all doors and windows, and secure any garage or shed. If you have an alarm system, set the alarm and ensure that the key holder will be available. Place valuable and irreplaceable items in a safe or a safety deposit box, or hide them somewhere safe. Never hide keys outside; leave a key with a trusted neighbour. Turn lights on timers and leave the radio on. Arrange for a neighbour to regularly check on your home, mow your lawn, move vehicles in the driveway and check your mail. Never post on social media when you’ll be away from your home.
