Storm Safety Tips for Animals in Warren?
1/19/2022 (Permalink)
SERVPRO® of St. Clair Shores has been restoring storm damage in Warren for many years. Our fast emergency response time saves our customers time and money in many cases. The winter months bring heavy snow, and last month, a couple of weeks before Christmas, a storm near Bomb Cyclone proportions fell over the state. Here are some tips for protecting our animals during a winter storm from the American Red Cross:
- Bring your companion animals indoors
- Create a place where your other animals can be comfortable in severe winter weather. Horses and livestock should have a shelter where they can be protected from wind, snow, ice, and rain. Grazing animals should have access to a protected supply of food and non-frozen water.
- Be aware of the potential for flooding when snow and ice melt, and be sure that your animals have access to high ground that is not impeded by fencing or other barriers. You may not be able to get to them in time to relocate them in the event of flooding.
- Install snow fences in rural areas to reduce drifting snow on roads and paths, which could block access to homes, barns, and animals’ feed and water
