The weekend place got hit about a month ago. They made 3 trips as far as I can tell. I had an IR game cam up in the back. Got a great shot of the front of the car and a perp but it's all whited out because they had the headlights on. Got one atv, bunch of tools, guns. There was a male and female involved. Took cleaning supplies, towels, frozen sausage, fudge sickles and dry food!!! Took all the normal stuff to. Good thing is they didn't find the house keys(double cylinder!!), opened a window to put stuff through then closed the window after. And they did not trash the house. I mainly had to just close cabinet doors. They drove the atv off and we believe they are close. The Sherriff is working some leads. I since added a fence and gate to secure the back from people parking there. Also added some motion lights. I'm thinking about a monitored alarm or just a home alarm with a lound siren. I had insurance, some, but you still always take some loss. The problem is there are so many weekenders around there, and I'm right on the blac top.
What do yall do to secure your place? And also check your coverages!!! I only had $1000 in tools. I might have lost 2-3 thousand. $1000 in guns. We had never changed the coverage since building the garage in 2004, and stuff started to accumulate! The atvs were on a separate policy, not replacement value but market value. I'm still waiting on that decision.
