--Home Depot or Lowes carry what they call thumb screws and you can

put them on the windows to lock them.

We have been using the thumb screws/locks for years. Their purpose is for

added security to your windows, you can also set them to where your windows

can only be opened so far. They are awesome!

Thanks everyone for the window thumbscrew idea. These attach without a

drill and can be removed with pliers (or a Hercules grip). I would also

like to recommend push button door locks, mine are made by Unican but

several companies now make them. I have a friend who's daughter

installed the number coded type on the outside of her bedroom door to

keep her brother out.These are so much easier than the double keyed

locks and the combinations can be changed or you can have different ones

for different people. Happy New Year! Trina
