Every Wednesday, Kevin and Jenna talk to a local expert about the things that make our lives easier, from home improvement to DIY to parenting. This week we chat with Home Expert Susie Calabrese of @susiecal_CT. Today, Susie is shedding light on a crucial topic as we enter the darker months of the year – home security. With longer nights and increased opportunities for unwanted persons or actions on our property, it’s essential to know how to protect your home. Did you know that your neighbors can play an essential part in home security, or that it might be a better idea to post those vacation picture when you get back from your trip? Susie has all the details that will get us safely through the cold weather months!
