The first was a failed burglary when two teenagers were disturbed while trying to force open a back window.
And a scythe, taken from a garden shed, was used to force open a kitchen window in another property.
Det Sgt Ian Critchley said the home was then searched and a pair of keys were stolen.
The first youth was white, aged 14-15 years old, 5ft 5in tall and wearing a light coloured baseball cap. The other was white, 14-15 and around 4ft tall.
Anyone with information should call Darwen CID on 01254 353842 or Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
