Top Security Tips for Christmas

Aimee from Securely

Make your holiday prep - stress free by following our top 10 security tips this Christmas:

1. Make sure your doors and windows are in tip top shape and secured.

2. Let us know when you’re leaving and when you’re back, and if you need any different type of monitoring.

3. Arrange to have a neighbour clear your mail.

4. Let a neighbour or friend know you will be away, so they can keep an eye out for any suspicious activity.

5. Don’t advertise that you’re going away on Facebook.

6. Turn off anything that doesn’t need power while you’re away (think TVs or computers).

7. Make sure all the doors are locked.

8. Double check those windows.

9. Turn on your Securely alarm!

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
