- When using a bicycle, make sure it is properly secured when parked. MPD recovers between 300 to 600 bicycles annually that end up unable to be returned to the owners.
- When running errands, do not bring pets. If unavoidable, roll down windows and leave water, but try not to be gone long.
- If leaving Moscow for the summer, make sure to secure all property and have a trusted friend check up on it periodically, or check up on it personally.
- Put belongings in storage rather than leaving them unattended in an empty apartment over the summer.
- Try not to stay in the heat too long. Wear sunscreen, sunglasses, hats and dress appropriately for the weather. Stay hydrated as much as possible.
