Bug in vs bug out: why home is the default for most emergencies, when leaving is safer, and how your family can set trigger points and routes ahead of time.
Bug in security tips for families staying home: harden doors and windows, keep a low profile, light approaches, work with neighbors and plan for a break-in.
Learn how to stay cool without power: shade the house by day, ventilate at night, cool your family with water, spot heat illness, and know when to leave.
Learn how to heat your home without power: warm one room, dress in layers, use safe heat sources, avoid carbon monoxide and know when it is time to leave.
Use the bugging in checklist the smart way: audit your home, close the Vital gaps first, and build from three days to two weeks of supplies a little at a time.
Bugging in means staying home through an emergency on what you have prepared. Plan water, food, power, heat, cooling and security for two weeks at home.
