A FORMER BURGLAR SAYS THIS IS THE BEST WAY TO PREVENT BREAK-INS

If you’re worried about break-ins at home, this could help!

A former burglar claims the best way to prevent them is also one of the cheapest:  Just put up a sign that says “BEWARE OF DOG”.

If you have a dog, great.  But it works even if you don’t.  He says the average burglar won’t risk it.  They’d rather move on and try another house instead.

He says it’s more of a deterrent than those signs that say you’ve got a security system installed.  And they only cost about five bucks on Amazon.

There might be a few drawbacks though.  For example, they’re not exactly nice to look at.  So your neighbours might not like it.

Also, someone on a Reddit thread said they put one up at their new place.  Then friends kept calling from outside the first time they came to visit.  They knew he didn’t have a dog and thought they had the wrong address.
