Emergencies Happen - How To Keep Your Pets Safe

Different type of disasters call for different sorts of measures, but in all emergencies you need to make sure that your pet is taken care of. Here are 6 easy steps to follow in order to you and your pet for any disaster:

Get a Rescue Alert Sticker

By placing this sticker somewhere where it is visible to rescue workers, it will let them know that there are pets inside the house. These types of stickers usually include the number and types of pets in your household, the name of your veterinarian, and your veterinarians phone number. If you evacuate with your pets, write “EVACUATED” across the sticker.

Arrange a Safe Place

It is vital that you don’t leave your pet behind in the event of an evacuation, as they may become trapped or exposed to life-threatening hazards. All Red Cross disaster shelters accept pets. You can prepare for this by researching local places that will accept pets in case of an emergency.

Emergency Supplies and Traveling Kits

Just as humans have emergency kits, pets should have them too. Here are some examples of what to keep in a pet evacuation kit:

Pet First Aid Kit

3-7 days worth of canned or dry food, Disposable litter trays, Litter or paper toweling, Disinfectant and liquid dish soap, Feeding dishes, Extra collars, harnesses and leashes, Paper Towels, Bottled water, Blanket, Photos of your pet and a Crate.

Pick Designated Caregivers

In case something happens to you, you should have someone who can act as a temporary and/or permanent caregiver. This sort of decision needs to be made ahead of time, and be well thought out, as it requires a lot of trust.

Evacuation Preparation

In case of an ordered evacuation, here are some ways to make it as easy as possible:

Bring pets inside at first sign of an impending disaster
Call ahead to make arrangements to board your pet outside the danger zone
Ideally, you should have your pet micro-chipped, but an ID tag containing your pet’s name, telephone number and any urgent medical needs will do.

Geographic and Climatic Considerations

If you live in an area that is prone to certain natural disasters, plan accordingly.

Enhancing Security at Storage Facilities with Power Plus DVS

When people store trucks, trailers, boats, and RVs at storage facilities, they’re not just stashing extra vehicles and old equipment. They’re entrusting these businesses with some of their most valuable possessions — and often their livelihoods.

Storing high-value inventory like heavy-duty trucks, trailers, and construction equipment, truck yards and equipment rental yards are prime targets for cargo theft and other security threats.

It’s no secret Power Plus DVS started out in construction site security. It’s where we learned to always walk a property before designing its video surveillance system.

Back in the day, security guard companies like yours were the logical first defense against crime, vandalism, and trespassing. But in our ever-changing world – with evolving technology, higher value targets, and more shrewd criminals – yesterday’s stalwart guard services are facing unprecedented, new challenges.

As fast as today’s business world is evolving, the need for cost-effective security solutions is even more crucial than ever.

With our decades of experience working on job sites, no one has to tell Power Plus Designed Video Surveillance how monumental a job it is for you to manage your construction site.

With criminals targeting construction sites more and more, every construction project faces the same rising concern of theft. Not to mention vandalism, trespassing, and liability protection. But that’s where the similarity between your job site and any other ends.
