Keep handy a pair of goggles and a dust mask for each member of your household in case of ashfall.
When indoors, close all windows and doors to limit the entry of volcanic ash. Place damp towels at thresholds.
Bring animals and livestock into closed shelters to protect them from breathing volcanic ash!
Listen to a local station on a portable, battery-operated radio or television for updated emergency information and instructions. Local officials will give the most appropriate advice for your particular situation.
If outside at the time of eruption, seek shelter in a car or a building. If caught in volcanic ashfalls, wear a dust mask or use a handkerchief or cloth over your nose and mouth.
