The Bug-In Handbook: Turn Your Home Into Your Family's Safe Place (Illustrated Hardcover)

When everything stops, the safest place is your own home - if you're ready.

Power cuts. Empty shelves. Storms that close the roads. In most emergencies, leaving home is the worst thing you can do. Staying put - "bugging in" - is what keeps families safe. But almost no one knows how to do it right.

The Bug-In Handbook shows you, step by step, how to turn the house you already live in into a place that can take care of your family for weeks or months - without panic and without spending a fortune.

What's inside - 10 parts of a safe home

• Food - build a stockpile on a normal budget and keep it fresh for years
• Water - store, collect and clean enough water for the whole family
• Power & light - simple ways to keep the lights and phones on when the grid is down
• Heat & cooling - stay warm in winter and cool in summer with no electricity
• Cooking off-grid - safe ways to cook indoors and outdoors
• Home security - quiet, simple upgrades that make your home a hard target
• First aid & medicine - what to keep at home and how to use it
• Sanitation & hygiene - stay clean and healthy when water and trash services stop
