A popular target for burglars is your set of expensive power tools which is often left out in the open and not properly stored in sheds and outbuildings. To help police easily identify your expensive tools in case they get stolen, you can engrave your postcode or house number on them or use an “UV” ink pen to mark your name on them.
Many homeowners forget to secure their valuables such as expensive jewellery in safes or in secret spaces around your home. Keeping valuables on your dressing table or in drawers can easily be spotted by thieves. It is also recommended you opt for jewellery insurance so your valuables can be repaired or replaced as it covers accidental damage, loss and theft.
You should not think important documents have no value to a burglar. These are just as desirable to a burglar as your big screen TV. Keep all your private documents such as birth certificates, passports, property deeds, tax returns, and legal contracts in a fireproof safe. Use a shredder to destroy important documents to prevent them falling into the wrong hands. Identity theft is becoming one of the most common crimes in the country. Protect yourself.
There is a reason why medications have to be properly labelled and kept out of reach of children. This is because they can be lethal. These should be stored properly like any other valuable item in a home to stop them from getting into the hands of burglars, along with curious children and forgetful seniors. Your medicines should not be accessible to anyone.
Do not write down passwords and pin numbers as these can cause a lot of harm when in the wrong hands. It is recommended to encrypt, or password protect files when storing passwords and pins. Remember, the Ashley Madison leak? The HBO hack? The criminal world is out for your digital life now more than ever before.
