This is a good list and link of what to put in your 72 hour kit.WATER: Water is obviously something you will need. 3 gallons should be in your 72 hour kit. One per day. Fact: Adults are 50-65% water. FOOD AND UTENSILS: 1-3 days worth of none perishable food. Energy bars are a good choice. I have raisins in mine. Utensils such as fork, knife, can opener, spoon. Fact: you can live 3 weeks with out food. CLOTHES: I would suggest 1-2 pairs of clothes. And a pair of boots. BEDDING: I suggest just a thermal blanket and heat pads. That's all I have. FLASHLIGHT: With extra batteries. WHISTLE: If you are stuck under something blow your whistle for a signal you are under there. Don't shout because you might inhale something. WIPES AND SANITATION: Bring wipes and hand sanitizer. A filter mask. Along with a towel and bandages. FIRST AID AND TOOLS: Wrenches and rods. First aid kit. MEDICATIONS: Any type of medication you use, along with certain types of medicine. MAPS AND CREDIT CARDS: Make sure you have a credit card in case you need it to scrape of a stinger or something. Credit cards can be very useful. Make sure it is a credit card you don't really care about. Make sure you don't care if that credit card is ruined. I hope you will make you 72 hour kit and do more research for it. Posted by: Janeen

Because if an earthquake happens when you are in bed, you will have shoes to protect your feet from broken glass. And if it's dark and the power goes out, a flashlight with an extra pair of batteries will be helpful.
