Burglary, the most common risk that besets home owners (according to federal sources, in the US a home is burglarized every 15 seconds or so), can be deterred not only by the home alarm, but also by the very decals on your window and/or sign in front of your home.
So having your home secured is an important factor, and there are many security measures a homeowner can take, from trimming bushes back to installing deadbolt locks and motion sensing lights.
