Should I tape my windows when a hurricane threatens?

We do not recommend taping your windows to protect them from the high winds and debris kicked up during poor weather. Taping the windows will not protect them against flying debris and if your lucky enough to still have windows you will be left peeling tape off your windows after the storm passes. When a hurricane warning is issued you should immediately shutter your windows and doors either with actual hurricane shutters made specifically for this purpose or plywood that can be purchased at a hardware or lumber store.
