Dogs are good, but an alarm system doesn’t require you to pick up its hot steaming crap using a little plastic bag.

At 4:45 PM, too. Perps clearly were intent on evil.

You mustn’t forget that he was “getting his act together.”

I use an entrenching tool and an empty plastic plant bucket, but then I’m primarily picking up from my own fenced back yard. And it’s typically at ambient temperature, not hot and steaming.

All a security system does is make noise. Its useful to wake you up and shorten the time criminals will spend in your home.

I read a suggestion that you place your car keys alongside your bedstand (if you have the kind with the remote unlock, etc.). Hear a noise? Click the remote to fire off the car alarm. Buys you a little more time and might scare off the more skittish types.

Yes, I agree with your statement 100%.

Even the Marine and Army wives at those places are tougher! Really!

I used to install home alarms. I once had a single mom if the alarm was all she needed. I told the truth. I don’t do alarms anymore.
