You have got (plenty of) Mail
An mailbox is a sign that you are off.  Request a friend to empty your box and maintain your porch free from email and fliers.
Decal Decoy
Thieves try to find a simple mark; which makes your house appear tough to decode will inspire them to proceed.  You may easily install safety system stickers -- a definite deterrent -- even in the event that you don't own a system.
Home Automation Tricks
Placing some wise light bulbs at street-facing lamps or installing smart drapes enables you to control all of them via program as you're away.  DIY home automation is cheap and simple to install.  Set them to a random program to make it look like somebody's always home.
Give a Trim to Shrubs
Overgrown leaves informs thieves they will have less prospect of being viewed while they operate, and  you might not often be around.  Cut those branches back so that it's not really simple for thieves to hide.
Light Matters Up
Exterior motion sensor lighting make it difficult for a crook to avoid being seen.  Plus, once the lights come on, they might think somebody is seeing -- and skedaddle.
Lock Down
Frequently a crook is not even breaking, just using a door left unlocked.  Bright locks which automatically lock themselves behind, mean that is never an alternative.
Keep Your Eye on Things
Due to relatively cheap DIY systems, it is possible to install a security camera outside (or inside) that allows thieves understand you are watching their every movement.
Do not Advertise
Tempting as it is to broadcast your holiday to Hawaii instantly, that is also a certain way to tell the entire world (or anybody who is arranging a break-in) you are away from your home.  Resist, and article about the trip as soon as you've returned.
Install Window Stops
These stop windows from being opened over six inches -- ideal for venting, but perhaps not for a criminal who would like to slide inside.
Get to Know Your Neighbors
They could watch out to your home and be sure nothing seems awry as you are off.
Fill Your Junk
Thieves are known to observe on garbage days, to determine which homes are not putting out anything (since it implies the occupants are probably going away).  Asking a neighbor to occasionally put your garbage helps to ensure that nobody will see the garbage was overlooking.
Get a Fake Fido
A "Beware of Dog" sign or even a bowl and string by your rear door can be sufficient to scare off the poor (even in the event you don't actually have a pooch).
