Do you need a natural disaster survival kit?

In my opinion, most people are very complacent about their security. Saying that most think it can’t happen to me. But wait, it has happened to people you know, or someone else knows. Examples of this are just what has happened with hurricane Harvey and Irma, damage and devastation to homes, businesses, and even loss of life. In both of these instances, a warning was given ahead of time. So if you were prepared ahead of time with a bug-out bag, it would have maybe saved you with less worry.

What kind of natural disaster survival kit do you need?

There are kits for disasters, including first-aid style, nuclear, family kids, earthquake, severe weather, etc. Our focus will be on weather survival, and you will see how all the others will fit in.

The essential item in your bug-out bag, I think, is water.

I say this because, without it, we cannot survive. The average person can go without water for only three days. Have you noticed that the water becomes tainted with germs and sewage even in times of hurricanes with massive flooding? To solve this problem, you need some filtration to filter out these contaminants to make the water drinkable. This type of filtration is already available for purchase. I highly recommend this item should be in your kit emergency preparedness.

Can you make your survival kit?

I answer this yes and no. I say this is more of a personal preference than anything else because buying a natural disaster kit will have everything in it that was given much thought by professional survival experts. These experts, mostly from military backgrounds, know what you need to survive. You can start by using an excellent backpack to put your items in neatly and well organized in a pack makes sense because it will be easier to carry. If you’re making a kit for your whole family, you may need a couple of bags to have everything. If cost is not a problem, I will purchase a professionally designed survival kit.

What will be in the natural disaster survival kit?

Here are the items in your kit and what they will be used for.

Warmth & Outdoor Shelter Kit-Outdoor shelter can be a Mylar type sleeping blanket developed by NASA that reflects your body heat and keeps you warm. These are cheap and compact but a much-needed item for survival.

Emergency Food & Water Kit-Water is the number one item needed for survival which would consist of a water filtration cup for each family member. Food packed in freeze-dried packs that will last for months.

Mess Kit-A miniature stove for cooking on and additional essential cooking items for cooking in the wilderness.

Emergency Light & Communications Kit-A solar-powered camp light can also serve to charge cell phones. Also in that kit will be several waterproof matches for making a campfire.

Natural Disaster Survival Essentials Kit-Included in this would be an approved survival knife, preferably military style, which can be used for chopping, cutting, sewing, and self-defense. Also, make sure the kit includes a fishing line and hooks for catching a meal.

Personal Health & First Aid Kit-In your kit, you will get first aid supplies everything needed for essential wound protection. Your hygiene is necessary to help keep you in tip-top shape to challenge any situation. A couple of bars of soap will go a long way in keeping yourself clean.

To summarize, what you just learned about a natural disaster survival kit is that it is a necessary addition to your safety and security. You don’t want to be without your equipment! Keep it in a good place where family members will be able to react if you are not around. I also suggest a survival kit for your car if you break down in a storm and no one can reach you. It’s always good to carry a first aid kit in your vehicle, regardless of a shower or a car accident. Always be prepared. Don’t be without your bug-out bag. It can save your life.
