If you’re staying home this holiday, here are some safety tips:
- If you have a peep hole in your door, don’t cover it with a wreath or other decoration.
- This is the season for charities, but don’t open your door; talk through the door and ask for ID first.
- After the holidays, shred boxes before you take them to the curb so you don’t advertise electronics purchases.
If you’re hosting a party:
- Hide your valuables.
- Hide prescription medicines instead of leaving them in the medicine cabinet.
- Secure guns.
- Greet guests at the door to make sure no strangers are let in.
- Offer non-alcoholic beverages to help reduce the possibility of DUIs.
- After the party, check that all your doors and windows are still locked.
