Task three: Preparing your home

In Brooks's non-fiction print entitled "The zombie Survival Guide: Preparing your home", he states that there are three things you need to follow in order to survive a zombie apocalypse. The author supports his claim by putting in steps on barricading your home, supplies/equipment, and how to survive an attack. To barricade your home, put a six foot tall chain linked fence around your home. If you live in an apartment complex, get to the second floor and destroy the stairs to make sure zombies dont get to the second floor. As Brooks states, "Another advantage of the apartment complex is its large population... an apartment building can be defended by all of its tenants" (Brooks). The author next proceeds to show that you need supplies and equipment to survive against zombies. If you are storing guns and ammunition, you should have enough ammo for one person if not, make sure everyone has the same amount. Equipment that you neef would be clothing, toilet paper, toold, and some kind of generator for electricity. Finally, the author argues that you need to learn how to survive an attack. If you have more than one person you should have different times to patrol si everyone can rest. If you are alone patrol until it gets dark, then you should sleep lightly and near a weapon and flaslight. Also you should have a latrine in your backyard in a corner and a vegatable garden if the soil and weather allows it.
