Emergency Bag & Secondary Supplies







B.O.B. stands for Bug-Out-Bag and it's designed to be your go-to bag when things get nasty. It's designed to keep you stocked for 24-48 hours while you assess your current situation. I made this up for my mom since she's out in the boonies and I want her to be safe just in case the weather gets bad.

You also want to have a box filled with extra supplies and food along with any secondary supplies. This is more so designed if there were to be a terrible disaster and you needed more than just 2 days of supplies. You add your own clothing, toothbrush, toothpaste, OTC meds, prescription meds, forks, spoons, knives. Most people also have duct tape, paper towels, tweezers, a bulb syringe, sunblock, bug spray, sewing kit, and a medicine cup that can be added as well.
