When your home has flooded, it's essential to prioritize your safety above all else.
To minimize the risk of further damage and ensure you can access your belongings, move quickly and carefully to higher ground or a safe room without using electrical appliances.
Waterborne pathogens and heavy metals can be present in floodwaters, so it's crucial to wear protective gear when handling debris. Avoid ingesting water or eating food that may have come into contact with floodwater.
