Halloween

Halloween can be a scary time for people who do not like surprises or callers at the door.

Here is our advice for elderly or vulnerable residents:

Place the ‘no trick or treats’ card on your door or in your window to help deter trick or treaters.

If you do receive an unexpected caller at the door do not feel pressured to answer it.

If you are expecting a delivery or visit from a professional always ask for ID or confirmation of their work place.

If you have a door chain make sure it is securely fastened at all times and lock your porch door

Be sure to use your spy hole viewer if you have one. If you have one, talk through your wireless video doorbell.
