Step 1: Prioritize Safety
- Ensure everyone in the household is accounted for before attempting to access a flooded area.
- Stay informed about flood conditions and emergency alerts from local authorities.
- Evacuate if instructed to do so by local officials, or if you suspect your home has been contaminated with sewage or other hazardous materials.
Precautions to Take After a Flood
- Turn off the main water supply valve before attempting to access your home or property.
- Use protective gear, such as gloves and masks, when handling hazardous materials like chemicals or sewage.
- Avoid walking through floodwaters unless absolutely necessary. Water can be contaminated with pollutants like bacteria, viruses, and chemicals.
