Take steps to protect yourself and your loved ones during your cleanup after a disaster event. Here's a general tip: Get the right safety gear!
• Hard hats
• Goggles
• N-95 respirator (or a respirator with a higher protection level)
• Heavy work gloves
• Waterproof boots with steel toe and insole (not just steel shank)
• Earplugs or protective headphones (if you’re working with noisy equipment)
• At least two fire extinguishers (each with a UL rating of at least 10A)
