Regular drainage maintenance plays a big role in preventing flooding. Removing debris such as leaves and tree branches from your water canal will help keep the drainage working smoothly.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Carmella Vancil</dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 26 Jul 2012 13:53:42 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Flood Prevention for Your Home</title><link>http://www.charlesandhudson.com/archives/2008/01/flood-prevention-for-your-home.htm#comment-591116439</link><description>&lt;p&gt;I agree! A regular drainage inspection will be to your advantage in the long run. Flood water can cause structural damages and the formation of molds. Flat surfaces like wood panels, carpets, or insulation are the likely starting point of mold manifestations, as molds are likely to grow in damp, wet places. Thus, it would be best to check areas that are usually damp and rarely touched by sunlight.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Darryl Iorio</dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 18 Jul 2012 11:48:38 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Flood Prevention for Your Home</title><link>http://www.charlesandhudson.com/archives/2008/01/flood-prevention-for-your-home.htm#comment-204596310</link><description>&lt;p&gt;Ahh, yes! Leaves! They are the top reasons why there are flooding areas. It is very advisable to check the drainage in the house and clean it regularly. The worst thing that can happen is when the water enters your house and your furniture pieces get soaked. &lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Sharon Strock</dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 16 May 2011 14:03:54 -0000</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
