When the Family Is Away, Make Sure the Burglars Don’t Play
It’s a fact that almost all types of personal and household crime are highest in the warm months when people spend more time away from home on vacations or are involved in outdoor activities. But you can help avoid becoming part of this statistic by taking action to protect your home, property, and family while you’re relaxing and having fun in the sun! The National Crime Prevention
Council states that although crime is still a very serious concern, our homes and communities are safer than they’ve been in decades, and this is quite likely due, at least in part, to prevention and community policing. A few proactive measures and common sense can prevent your vacation from being wrecked by a break-in. Follow these tips and enjoy a safer and happier summer season. First and foremost,
lock up! Whether it’s a short trip to the grocery store or a longer haul to your favorite vacation spot, make sure your doors and windows are securely locked. Even small measures like getting good quality door locks can help give a home an added level of security. Remember that nothing is more effective at deterring a burglar than the impression that the home is occupied. Install timers on your lights to make it look like someone is home. If you are planning to be away for a lengthy period of time, entertain the idea of a house sitter. Store valuables in a secure place. A
home safe can be a great option for storing various valuables including jewelry and important home and family-related documents. Garage doors are a favorite point of entry for burglars. Keep your garage door closed at all times, and lock the door from your garage into your home. Be certain that tools, ladders and other objects that could be used to break into your home are securely locked up inside the garage or house. Be sure that your trees and shrubs don’t cover windows and doors.
Hidden entrances can make it easier for burglars to get into your home unnoticed by neighbors and bystanders. Leave spare keys only with trusted family members or neighbors you are close to. Do not hide them outside. Burglars are smart enough to look around and know the common places people hide keys. You may also want to consider a home security system. Check the Moore County Home Builders Association membership directory (www.mchba.com) to find companies
specializing in home security. Most experts agree that your neighbors are one of your best defenses. Get to know them and chances are they will be more likely to watch for suspicious activity around your home while you’re away. It’s important to notify neighbors that you trust about your plans to be out of town. Break-ins can be easily avoided by taking the proper precautions. So be prepared, make wise decisions and relax.

Signs that termites might be invading your house
FRIDAY, JUNE 29, 2012
(ARA) - Termites live to eat. Their hunger causes $5 billion worth of damage each year in the U.S., damage most homeowner's insurance doesn't cover. In fact, a colony can devour a foot of 2by-4 wood in only six months. And since termites are masters at going undetected, they can destroy entire support beams before you discover their presence. That's why it's so important to know what to look for. The warning signs of termites Most termite species like to stay underground and within walls, where it's dark and damp. Here are some signs to look for: • Mud tubes - The easiest sign to detect. These pencilwidth paths lead from a nest directly into your home and make it easy for termites to avoid sunlight. Check the surrounding land, any crawl spaces and your basement. • Swarms - Reproductive termites grow wings and fly during spring and fall. Check for this type of termite and the wings they shed. • Piles - Drywood termites leave sawdust-like piles around windowsills and cracks in woodwork or beams. You might also see what looks like collections of dirt at the base of walls and in corners. • Weakened wood - Long, thin cracks and sagging can be signs that wood has been hollowed out by termites. (Holes in wood are not commonly caused by termites, and may be a sign of beetles or carpenter ants.) What a termite control professional can do for you Termite professionals have years of experience and expertise when it comes to using the right treatment method for your unique situation. Different techniques are required based on the location of termite activity, the type of foundation you
THE PILOT — SOUTHERN PINES, N.C.
have and even the number of porches and patios. And just because the obvious signs of an infestation aren't there, such as mud tunnels or splitting wood, it doesn't mean that termites aren't. There are a number of professional termite control products on the market today, including DuPont Altriset. It works by paralyzing the mouths of termites within hours of exposure, stopping further damage immediately. Your risk and how to reduce it Risk level varies, largely depending on where you live. However, there are common measures that will make your home less appetizing to termites. • Termites like moisture - Eliminate water in gutters and puddles or any other areas where water might gather on or near your home. Repair any plumbing or drainage problems. Laying down plastic barriers in crawl spaces, basements and attics will help keep them dry. • Don't provide termites with extra food - Remove lumber or freestanding wood from the base of your home. Don't plant trees too close and clip away any vegetation, such as shrubs, that might be touching the foundation or walls. • Damp spots and cracks are an open invitation - Check outdoor faucets and gutters for leaks and ventilate humid crawl spaces. Repair cracks and holes in the foundation with caulk, closing off termite entry. • Don't take any chances - Have your home inspected each year by a professional. It doesn't take long and can mean early detection - saving you time and money. A smart way to protect your investment By mimicking a substance found in certain tree bark, DuPont Altriset paralyzes the mouths of termites to stop them from feeding within

hours of exposure. It also clings to their bodies undetected and enhances social behavior so that it is spread quickly throughout the colony. Your home is termite-free within three months and protected for years to come. To learn more about how Altriset works and how it can help protect your home, visit Altriset.com. Knowledge is power, especially when it comes to termites.
