CLEANING UP

  • Remember, if your home has sustained structural damage, do not move back until local officials check it.
  • Make a list of damaged items inside your home, business or boat. Include a complete description.
  • Check outside for damage to walls, roofs, porches and screens. Photograph or videotape damage to your home, business, car, boat and other personal property. This will speed up your insurance claim.
  • Wear rubber gloves while scrubbing cornstarch or talcum powder to absorb moisture. Leave powder on for several hours before brushing off.
