It&#8217;s similar in nature. Instead of a bug-out bag which is used when you need to evacuate and &#8220;bug-out&#8221; of a location to and contains 72-hours of supplies to survive. The purpose of this kit is to supply you and anyone in your home with 72-hours of supplies to survive until the emergency or disaster is gone,<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"8_Essential_Items\"><\/span>8 Essential Items<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>This doesn&#8217;t have to be complicated. We&#8217;re not prepping a bug-out bag during a zombie invasion&#8230; yet.<\/p>\n<p>But this kit is fairly straight forward.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"72-hours_of_Food\"><\/span>72-hours of Food<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>For an emergency food supply. We want three days worth of food per person. Canned goods work well.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"72-hours_of_Water\"><\/span>72-hours of Water<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Three liters per day, per person, is the recommended amount of water to have.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Note<\/strong>: There is no official and exact measurement for the amount of water you have to have per person per day to survive. The three liters is simply the recommended amount.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Small_Stove\"><\/span>Small Stove<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>A small camping stove is ideal for having a portable stove.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Can_Opener\"><\/span>Can Opener<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>For opening your canned foods supply of food. A can opener is a must. Unless you have a burly rugged tool like a survival knife and can open them with that.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Cell_Phone_Charger\"><\/span>Cell Phone Charger<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Be sure to get a cell phone charger that is battery powered. Or you could get one that is solar-powered\u00a0<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Radio\"><\/span>Radio<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Similar to the cell phone charger. Get a portable radio that is battery-operated or solar-powered.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Flashlight\"><\/span>Flashlight<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Same with the above items. Battery-powered is the preference for flashlights.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Bleach\"><\/span>Bleach<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Bleach can be used for cleaning and purifying water if you have to. Bleach works well because you don&#8217;t need very much to do what you need to do with it. So you don&#8217;t have to stock much at all.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Extras\"><\/span>Extras<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Remember to pack some extras of these materials. Like batteries. Stocking your kit with a few is good. Just don&#8217;t forget to have extras around for when you use them.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Batteries<\/li>\n<li>Water<\/li>\n<li>Flashlights<\/li>\n<li>An extra radio is helpful as well<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Conclusion\"><\/span>Conclusion<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>This is one of the more important survival kits to take the time to prepare and make for your home.<\/p>\n<p>You&#8217;ll have a sense of security knowing that you have a stocked home survival kit that will be available in a crisis.
