Your Landscaping
Greenery is great at protecting your privacy from prying neighbors, but it’s also great at hiding burglars.
Thieves specifically target homes with shrubs or trees that grow thickly around the front or sides of the house, so keep yours trimmed away from walls and below window height—even if that means having to wave to Ned and Nancy over your morning coffee.
Also, having a well-maintained yard indicates that you’re vigilant about your home and likely paying close attention to it.
