NFU Mutual garden theft warning

One of the country's leading insurers is warning homeowners to check their policies carefully after research found a third have been the victim of garden theft.

The poll by NFU Mutual found a correlation between burglary incidence and more expensive garden contents.

Laura Wood, spokeswoman for the firm, explains: "The value of the rural garden is increasing with people spending more on state of the art barbecues, expensive garden furniture, tools and sometimes valuable statues."

She warns these items usually have to be specified on a policy in order to be covered.

However, simple measures like securing garden equipment to immovable objects and marking them clearly could deter thieves in the first place, Ms Wood adds.

The NFU Mutual warning is shared by price comparison site moneysupermarket.com, which lists lawnmowers, barbecue, heaters, expensive plants and elaborate statues among key garden items to cover.
