Here are a few safety tips to keep in mind when away from home for extended periods of time:

– Lock all doors and windows.

– Use timers so lights, radio, TV, go on and off throughout the house to indicate someone is home.

– Ask a neighbor or friend to collect your delivered mail and newspapers.

– Don’t leave a spare key under your doormat or in a nearby pot.

I encourage you to pass these safety tips along to family and friends, and as always, please feel free to contact me if you have any questions.
