Burglars are most often categorised as opportunistic thieves.

They seek out any opening that they can take advantage of – specifically doors and windows that are left open or unlocked or are easy to force.

Anything of value that they might spot through a window will only encourage them.

Derbyshire Police offer helpful information for householders called Seven facts about residential burglary.

They also offer advice on protecting your home from crime.
