Are You Prepared for Fire Damage in Your Home?

11/27/2023 (Permalink)

With the drought still happening in California, fires are still a primary concern during this windy season.  Additionally, as we head into the holidays, specifically Thanksgiving, we encourage people to prepare for everything from a wildfire to your basic kitchen fire.

So what does preparation entail?  Having a plan of action for immediately exiting the property.  You should also have an emergency kit stashed that you can just grab & go.  Or maybe you keep it safe in your vehicle.  But the point is you should have access to fresh water, batteries/ a power source, as well as dried foods and an emergency supply of medications you may need - and of course don't forget about your furry friends!  You may want to have an extra stash of pet food handy in that emergency bag as well.  Check out Ready.gov for more examples of how to be prepared should the worst happen.

Take care and stay safe!
