Look for objects that are metallic in nature and appear out of place. Military bomb shells may also be painted in black, white and other colors and can be very small or very large. Do not handle the object but you may be able to see identifying serial numbers or stamps on them that state where they are made or which military they belong to.
Check for any metallic objects that are partially buried or covered in dirt. These may be buried landmines. They may be located along busy roads or in empty fields and farmland.
Look for objects on the ground that do not appear to belong to anyone. These include the more obvious possible bomb shells such as metallic objects and metal shrapnel pieces and also familiar-looking everyday objects. Landmines are often made to resemble toys and other harmless objects to entice children and others to pick them up.
