North Wales Police are appealing for people to be vigilant following three burglaries over the last three weeks in the Llangefni area.
Officers are requesting local residents be vigilant and to report any suspicious activity to police.
With Christmas just around the corner, police are offering the following advice to householders:
- Always lock all your doors and windows.
- Never leave keys in hiding places such as under flower-pots or on top of door-frames. Burglars know where to look.
- Where possible fit an alarm and security lighting.
- If you are going away on holiday or for any length of time, use timers on your lights. Also, cancel your milk for the duration of your absence and ask a friend or neighbour to collect your post so it doesn’t build up on your doormat.
- Never leave property in a porch you tend to leave insecure, even if the door is usually shut.
- Don’t leave expensive items on windowsills where they could be seen from the street.
- Property mark your valuables. You can use a UV pen or etching tool to mark property with your house number and postcode. This will make it easy to identify and will act as a huge deterrent to thieves.
Anyone with information is asked to contact North Wales Police on 101, or 0845 607 1001 9Welsh line) 0845 607 1002 (English line) or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
If anybody would like advice on security for their property then please contact your local neighbourhood policing team. Contact details for CBM’s and PCSO’s are available via the force website – www.north-wales.police.uk
