However, Autumn is here and it is worth repeating the Watch advice about how to reduce the possibility of your house being burgled. <\/span><\/p>\n Criminals will look for homes that: <\/span><\/p>\n \u2022 Seem unoccupied <\/span><\/p>\n \u2022 Have little or no security <\/span><\/p>\n \u2022 Have doors or windows left open or <\/span><\/p>\n \u2022 Where they think they won\u2019t be seen <\/span><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n As a general rule if it looks as if there is someone inside, the burglar is likely to go elsewhere. <\/span><\/p>\n Here are the things to remember: <\/span><\/p>\n Windows <\/b><\/span><\/p>\n \u2022 Are they closed and locked? <\/span><\/p>\n \u2022 If sensors are fitted, are they activated? <\/span><\/p>\n \u2022 Don\u2019t forget garages, sheds, or outhouses. <\/span><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Doors <\/b><\/span><\/p>\n \u2022 Are all outside doors (front. rear and patio) locked, preferably deadlocked? <\/span><\/p>\n \u2022 Are keys kept out of sight but readily available for your use? <\/span><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Inside <\/b><\/span><\/p>\n \u2022 Are your lights on a timer? <\/span><\/p>\n \u2022 If you have one, is your house alarm switched on?
