Hurricanes Floyd, Sandy, Irene, and most recently Ida – have shown us that we are in a ‘new normal’ for hazardous New Jersey weather. How can homeowners, renters and small businesses safely clean up their properties after a storm to prevent injury, exposure to harmful contaminants, and potential health effects?
What should I do with the rugs? Should I use bleach? How do I know if mold is present? Are there toxins in leftover flood waters? These and other issues and risks will be presented with meaningful and practical guidance.
