Petrol bombs and your plans...

[Tibbs735]

A mesh cage around windows, like many people in rougher areas already have, would either burst the bomb prematurely, or cause it to bounce away onto the ground. Also cinder blocks don't burn well, so consider what flammable materials you have lying around.

One tip I heard was to stake down fishing line in a random cobweb pattern 1 foot high on your lawn. People have to be fairly close to throw the bomb with any accuracy. With the tangle lines down they cannot just run up to your house and away again, giving you more time to ventilate them.
