Landscape

• Lower branches of trees should be trimmed up to a height of 6 feet
• Shrubs should be trimmed down to a height of 3 feet
• Shrubs and trees should be trimmed so they do not block the visibility into windows or doors
• For particularly vulnerable windows, consider planting a thorny shrub beneath the window which may help to prevent access.
