A recent poll of 2,000 adults found that 70% of Americans shop right before traveling. 54% clean the house, and 50% give friends and family a key just in case of an emergency. Before taking a vacation, the average respondent will do two “last looks” around the house to make sure everything looks good. Vacationers say that worrying about the home, missing a pet, and thinking about packages being stolen are causes of stress while they’re away. “It’s always a smart move to have friends, family, or professionals keep an eye on your home while you’re away,” Tim Eskew of Allegion said. “And with reliable security measures and remote monitoring in place, you can relax knowing your home is secure.” (swnsdigital)
