If you live in a rural town and you have repairs done to your house or have furniture or appliances delivered, make sure you supervise or pay close attention. Don’t leave strangers alone in any part of the house. You never know what they might notice that sparks their interest. Even if they themselves aren’t potential criminals, they might tell someone else what they observed, and that person cold decide to make you his target and compromise your resident safety. Also get to know who is coming into your house and make sure it is a reputable company, but that still does not mean you let your guard down.
