An Garda Síochána are encouraging people to lock up and light up to help keep your home safe.
They are reminding the public to turn lights on inside and outside when you are at home and when you leave your home. People are being urged to ensure the exterior of their property is well lit to the front and rear.
People can use timer switches. The public are being reminded, once again, to lock all doors and windows and to use an alarm. Gardaí warn the public to store keys away from windows.
People are being asked not to keep large amounts of cash or jewelery in the home and if you cannot avoid doing so ensure you have a secure safe in your home.
It is very important to always report any suspicious activity in your area to gardaí immediately as members of the public often help gardaí solve their investigation.
