They\u2019re already taking a major risk by breaking into any home, and they won\u2019t want to leave empty-handed in exchange for taking that risk.<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, many thieves and looters will already be experienced and know exactly where to look in your home for your valuables or stockpiles.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s why it\u2019s critical to be extra creative with where you hide your stockpiles and avoid hiding them in areas where looters are likely to look first.<\/p>\n<p>Here are the nine hiding spots in your house that looters will always look for first:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Attics And Basements<br \/>\n<\/strong>It\u2019s common practice for preppers to stockpile their food, water, and other supplies either in the attics or the basements of their homes.<\/p>\n<p>The logic for doing so certainly makes sense. This way their stockpiles are out of the way and out of sight of any guests who come to visit. It\u2019s important to keep your stockpiles as much of a secret as you can.<\/p>\n<div class=\"captioned-image-container\">\n<figure>\n<div class=\"image2-inset\"><picture><source srcset=\"https:\/\/substackcdn.com\/image\/fetch\/w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep\/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F722ba029-8914-4434-bd7d-bf6a842d1928_300x200.jpeg 424w, https:\/\/substackcdn.com\/image\/fetch\/w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep\/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F722ba029-8914-4434-bd7d-bf6a842d1928_300x200.jpeg 848w, https:\/\/substackcdn.com\/image\/fetch\/w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep\/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F722ba029-8914-4434-bd7d-bf6a842d1928_300x200.jpeg 1272w, https:\/\/substackcdn.com\/image\/fetch\/w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep\/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F722ba029-8914-4434-bd7d-bf6a842d1928_300x200.jpeg 1456w\" type=\"image\/webp\" sizes=\"100vw\" \/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"sizing-normal\" src=\"https:\/\/substackcdn.com\/image\/fetch\/w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep\/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F722ba029-8914-4434-bd7d-bf6a842d1928_300x200.jpeg\" sizes=\"auto, 100vw\" srcset=\"https:\/\/substackcdn.com\/image\/fetch\/w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep\/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F722ba029-8914-4434-bd7d-bf6a842d1928_300x200.jpeg 424w, https:\/\/substackcdn.com\/image\/fetch\/w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep\/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F722ba029-8914-4434-bd7d-bf6a842d1928_300x200.jpeg 848w, https:\/\/substackcdn.com\/image\/fetch\/w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep\/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F722ba029-8914-4434-bd7d-bf6a842d1928_300x200.jpeg 1272w, https:\/\/substackcdn.com\/image\/fetch\/w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep\/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F722ba029-8914-4434-bd7d-bf6a842d1928_300x200.jpeg 1456w\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" data-attrs=\"{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https:\/\/substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com\/public\/images\/722ba029-8914-4434-bd7d-bf6a842d1928_300x200.jpeg&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:200,&quot;width&quot;:300,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:27614,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:&quot;image\/jpeg&quot;,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:false,&quot;topImage&quot;:true,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null}\" \/><\/picture><\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p>Just because your neighbors and regular guests are friendly now doesn\u2019t mean that they won\u2019t come knocking on your door demanding supplies later.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>&#8230;click on the above link to read the rest of the article&#8230;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Where You (Shouldn&#8217;t) Store It: Nine Places Think like a thief&#8230; A marketing email just came from Michael Major, author of a book called\u00a0No Grid Survival Projects, on where NOT to hide your valuables.
