Consider an alarm system

Based on a recent interview the Columbus Ohio Police had with a burglar. The one thing he was looking for when casing a potential target house, were indications and signs of an alarm system, he told them during the interview.

When your vacation is still in the early planning stages, consider having an alarm system installed. A great place to start researching is the internet by comparing alarm systems for your house. There are many good options out there including wired or wireless; a basic system all the way to a more complex system.

When comparing alarm companies, not only look at the cost of the installation, monitoring, and cost of equipment, but also research the company you are consider to hire. Look at what their current and past clients say about their service, alarm response times, and customer concerns.
