Task Three: Preparing Your Home

In Max Brooks's non-fiction Zombie Survival Guide he wrote a certain passage entitled "Preparing Your Home", he states how you should prepare your home before the dead rise. The author supports his claim by steps on how to prepare your home, with modifications such as: putting up a fence around the home (at least 6-foot), put bars on the window, tempered safety glass etc... If you happen to live in an apartment complex you should barricade the stares and fist floor, and live on the second floor or higher. The author next proceeds to show you need supplies/equipment and what type, pistols, shotguns, gasoline, canned food, just to name a few. "Numbers should be adjusted on the number of people in the group", Brook states. Finally the author opines that you need to learn to survive an attack. A designated latrine should be in your backyard, and if weather an nature allows, you should have a vegetable garden, as a ready source of food. Brooks states "Many tasks will have to be accomplished and repeated for survival in a confined space."
