There are plenty of other ways to keep Daytona apartments protected. One example is to ask a friend, family member, or neighbor to keep an eye on your home while you're away. Ask them to call law enforcement if they see anything suspicious. You can also ask someone to stop in and hang out there throughout the day or apartment-sit and stay for the length of your trip. If you don't have the ability to do that, just make sure you lock everything up, put away all valuable possessions, and also make sure all blinds are closed. A neat trick that a lot of travelers do is that they make sure to put their lights on a timer so it appears as if someone is home, if you don't have a timer, then just put a small lamp or light on and leave it on while you're gone. The amount you'll spend on the utilities will be far less than the cost of repairs to the home or the cost of the valuable items that are taken during a burglary. Hopefully these tips will cut down on any surprises you might have that you wouldn't have known had you prepared yourself.
If you feel that you could still benefit from some more guidance on this issue, feel free to contact your local law enforcement agency and they would happily provide you tips and tools to help keep you and your Daytona apartment feel protected. That's their job! Eventually you'll feel confident that you've done all you can and you can feel free to enjoy your day-to-day and travels whether they be for work or for pleasure.
