Always Set the Alarm
Even when you’re home, it’s a great idea to set your alarm. There are options for “Stay” settings, which will alert you if any doors or windows are opened while you’re at home. This kind of option is ideal at night, but it doesn’t hurt to have it on during the day when you’re not expecting anyone. This is especially important since the most common time for burglaries takes place between 10 a.m. and 3 p.m. when most people are at work.
