According to the Federal Bureau of Investigation, a criminal illegally enters an American home every 11 seconds. In order to keep your belongings and family members safe, it’s essential that you take the proper precautions.

This local news segment explains how to theft-proof your home. Since thieves target homes that pose the least risk, you should make your home seem as daunting as possible. Motion detection lights, dogs, and a National Rifle Association sticker are all effective deterrents. You should also invest in a quality security system, in case a criminal is foolish enough to enter your home anyway.
