Did you ever have a stranger drive into your yard and ask for directions? Keep on reading...
There's been a lot of attention about farmers, protection and guns in the media recently. At Reed Security we've seen an increase of 25% about farm security, cabin security and acreage security over the past two years.
So, what are people concerned about? We interviewed Dave and Vicki Dutton from Dutton Farms in Paynton, SK about their concerns and here's what we found:
WHAT ARE FARMERS CONCERNED ABOUT?
"Theft is our biggest concern. We can't always be at the farm to keep an eye on things". Here were their concerns:
- home break-in
- shop break-in
- vehicle theft
- fuel theft
- theft of keys
- theft of wallets, cash, credit cards, ID
- theft of guns
- theft of tools
- theft of chemicals
- confrontation
DIRECTIONS PLEASE
"We live on a busy highway and a number of people come into our yard. When a lost stranger drives into your yard and asks for directions - are they really lost? Or could it be that they're scoping your place out?"
Just about everybody has maps on their smartphones. You should pay particular attention to the make and model of the vehicle and even the license plate if you can. Also make notes about the person's description and age. The Police will need this information in the event of a reported theft.
