 You should walk around your house with the eyes of a burglar, but I'm not hello My name is Corporal Madden. I'm with the Pasco County Sheriff's Office and today I want to bring to mind walking around your house with the eyes of a burglar And what we mean by that is walk around and see what what or where you might be vulnerable When you walk through you're gonna make sure that your windows are always shut and locked You're gonna want to make sure that obviously that your doors are locked You have sliding glass doors be mindful of your sliding glass doors There's there's items out there at Lowe's Home Depot that you can actually affix to your doors to help keep them more secure you can put poles or Room stick handles down at the bottom so they're not jimmied open easily One of one of our big things is lighting lighting is helpful if you have lighting at nighttime or motion sensors Lighting is a good deterrent. It usually keeps the bat away not always, but it's a step in the right direction With your windows, you know, as we know people can break windows and maybe gain access into your house think about shrubbery think about Going to Lowe's or Home Depot or any of your nurseries and asking what type of shrubbery is is Aesthetically pleasing to the eye, but yet functional as a crime prevention example Authority bush or a rose bush or something that that's gonna hurt or be discomfort to the bad person yet serve the purpose of beauty in the yard
