<human>:  What can I do at home to keep my pets safe when there are predators outside?
<bot>: To keep your pets safe from predators, you can take a few different steps. Start by making sure that your yard or outdoor space is securely fenced in with no gaps or open entrances. You should also inspect your fences regularly and repair any damage to keep predators from getting in. Additionally, avoid leaving your pet outside unattended for long periods of time, especially at night when predators are more likely to be active. You could also try adding motion activated floodlights or alarms to your yard that will sound when predators get too close. Finally, consider placing wire mesh over anything that could be used as a ladder, like woodpiles or porches, to prevent predators from scaling the fence.
