What to Do Before an Earthquake?

  • Make sure you have a fire extinguisher, first aid kit, a battery-powered radio, a flashlight, and extra batteries at home.

  • Learn first aid.

  • Learn how to turn off the gas, water, and electricity.

  • Make up a plan of where to meet your family after an earthquake.

  • Don't leave heavy objects on shelves (they'll fall during a quake).

  • Anchor heavy furniture, cupboards, and appliances to the walls or floor.

  • Learn the earthquake plan at your school or workplace.

What to do after a volcanic eruption?

  • Listen to your local radio stations for civil defence advice and follow instructions.

  • When it is safe to go outside, keep your gutters and roof clear of ash as heavy ash deposits can collapse your roof.

  • Avoid driving in heavy ashfall as it stirs up ash that can clog engines and cause serious abrasion damage to your vehicle.

  • Keep animals indoors where possible, wash away ash on their paws or skin to keep them from ingesting the ash, and provide clean drinking water.

  • Use a mask or a damp cloth and eye protection when cleaning up. Moisten the ash with a sprinkler before cleaning.
