OFFICE
Sheriff Mike Evans
Below is an excerpt from an article
in Reader's Digest.
Please pass this information along to the people in your neighborhood
13 Things Your Burglar
Won't Tell You
(1) "Of course I look
familiar" - I was here just here last week cleaning your carpets,
painting your shutters or delivering your new refrigerator. Hey, thanks
for letting me use the bathroom when I was working in your yard last
week. While I was in there, (2) "I unlatched the back window"
to make my return a little easier. (3) "Love those flowers."
That tells me you have taste, and taste means there are nice things
inside. Those yard toys your kids leave out always make me wonder what
type of gaming system they have. Yes I really do look for
(4) "newspapers piled up" on the driveway. And I might leave a
pizza flyer in your front door to see how long it takes you to remove
it. (5) "If it snows while your out of town, get a neighbor to
create car and foot tracks into the house." Virgin snow drifts are
a dead give away. If decorative glass is part of your front entrance,
don't let your alarm company install (6) "the control panel"
where I can see if it's set. That makes it too easy. A good security
company alarms the window over the sink. And the windows on the second
floor, which often access the master bedroom and your jewelry. It's not
a bad idea to put (7) "motion detectors" up there too. It’s
raining, you're fumbling with your umbrella, and you forget to lock your
door - understandable. But understand this: (8) "I don't take a day
off" because of bad weather. I always knock first. If you answer,
(9) "I'll ask for directions" somewhere or offer to clean your
gutters. (Don't take me up on it.) Do you really think I won't look in
(10) "your sock drawer?" I always check dresser drawers, the
bedside table, and the medicine cabinet. Here's a helpful hint:
(11) "I almost never go into kids' rooms." You're right: I
won't have enough time to (12) "break into that safe" where
you keep your valuables. But if it's not bolted down, I'll take it with
me. A loud TV or radio can be a better deterrent than the best alarm
system. If you're reluctant to leave your TV on while you're out of
town, you can buy a $35 device that works on a timer and simulates (13)
"the flickering glow" of a real television.
Please know that these are just things to think
about to keep your home and your valuables safe. You can order a device
called the "FakeTV" for $49.99. This gives the illusion that
you have left a TV on which is a big deterrent. The website is
www.faketv.com. The Community Action Team will come out and conduct a
security survey of your home free of charge. To have a survey conducted
you can e-mail your request to catteam@co.cal.md.us

The "Mutt

walkers to pick up after their pets. If there is any problem with
the locations, they can be easily relocated.

What
We Do Matters!
Our landscapes are connected to the Chesapeake Bay.
Prevent pollution and runoff with a healthy yard.
You can help the Bay and
improve
water quality by using Bay-Friendly Techniques with
your own home
landscape.
These techniques reduce the biggest pollutants in the Bay,
sediment and nutrients, (nitrogen and phosphorous),
by restoring natural filters.
