To try and prevent further incident please try to follow the below prevention advice -

Consider reviewing the general security of the property and follow the full domestic survey guide

Speak to neighbours, appraise them of the damage being caused and ask them to be vigilant and report any suspicious occurrence to the Police or ASB Team as appropriate.

Consider joining or forming a Neighbourhood Watch group. Offenders are less likely to cause damage in an area where people care.

If your property has been damaged repair it as quick as possible. Any existing damage is likely to attract more to be committed.

Keep a record of the details of all events you think are related to the damage including dates and times.

Improve the chances of any offender being seen, reduce hedges, increase lighting and if on private land consider CCTV & signage.

Thank you

Humberside Police
