Garage Door Screens

These Garage Door Screens are an awesome addition to any garage. My buddy has a cabin out in the woods and his garage is set up as a bar. We open the garage doors, pull down these Garage Door Screens and enjoy the woods while we talk about how we are natural mountain men – and yes, there is a fan if we get too hot, because no mountain man should be forced to sweat while drinking an ice cold drink.

Want to save yourself from the mosquitos and bugs? You have to put these Door Screens up!

These Garage Door Screens may seem like a luxury Garage Survival Gear item but once the world ends the number of bugs is going to astound you. Most counties spray for bugs. Once they stop, its going to be uncomfortable, and maybe even dangerous to be out. Bugs can be a nuisance, but they can also dangerous. They spread illness and disease, and trust me when I say they are going to swarm when there are millions of dead bodies about.

Garage Door Screens Scoring

While the utility of these Screens varies depending on where you live and where your bolt hole is – they are still a solid purchase. Because a real disaster is going to leave the insects to breed like crazy these Screens score a 210/1000 and can have a moderate impact on your survival.

  • Screen seals around the entire edge of the garage door.
  • Automatically closes and stays closed.
  • Made of ultra-durable fiberglass.
  • Installs in minutes.

Outdoor Extension Cord

You can never have enough Outdoor Extension Cords. I use them for both indoor and outdoor, year round. I’ve got a set that stays with the holiday lights and more in the garage. My favorite use is running a projector outside and watching a movie against the house.

Come the cold weather you will also see these Extension Cords running out to the field next to my house. We have heating pads for the feral cats who live in our field. Yes, after the kids moved out my wife and I went full cat crazy.

Outdoor Extension Cord Scoring

Pair this Outdoor Extension Cord with a Generator and you can set up an awesome camp. That means lights, recharging portable devices, and even fans during the warm weather. If a disaster hits and the power goes out, you will need both to stay comfortable.

This Extension Cord can have a moderate impact on your survival. It scores a 201/1000.

  • Great for gardening, landscaping, or powering any household appliance.
  • Flexible covering protects cords against moisture, abrasion and sunlight.
  • 12 gauge heavy duty wire.
  • The female end of the cord lights up to indicate when the power is on.

Solar Pendant Lights

I have a wonderful workshop/shed that is at the back of my property. Without these Solar Pendant Lights I would have been forced to pay hundred or thousands of dollars to run a power line out there. These Solar Lights let me put a light wherever I need it. Im looking forward to when I can build a tree fort for grand kids, because you better believe it is going to have solar lights inside.

Because these Solar Pendant Lights also have a motion sensing mode I can put them outside gates and even my shed entrance so that if someone does sneak by I will at least see who it is and what they are doing. It also helps scare off people who are trying to be stealthy. When the lights come on, most people run if they are about to do dirty deeds in the dark.

Do you have a regular camp site? You can put up these Solar Lights and have light wherever you need it. Trust me when I say that using an outhouse by flashlight is much harder than just setting up a Solar Pendant Light.

Solar Pendant Lights Scoring

When it comes to Off The Grid, you can’t go wrong with these Solar Pendant Lights. I keep a few extra sets so when the power goes off during the Zombie Apocalypse my Bolt Hole will still have lights. Throw a few more sets out in the woods on motion sensing mode and you also have an early warning system of inbound biters.

These Solar Lights score a 415/1000. It’s hard to survive if you don’t have light to see what’s going on.

Full Respirаtor Face Mask

I worked in a chemical plant when I was in my twenties. One of these Full Respirаtor Face Mask saved my vision, and probably my life. To this day I don’t mess with dust, paint thinner/stripper, or any other chemicals unless I’m fully protected. Save your eyes, your lungs, and your health! Wear a Respirаtor if your working with dust, aeorols and chemicals.

This Full Respirаtor Face Mask is a really important layer to my personal safety and defense. I keep one in my garage for doing projects. I keep another in my vehicle for emergencies.

My friends and family believe I keep these Face Masks around for eye protection and the “normal reasons”. Of course I know that if things fall apart I might just be wearing it a lot more. Fire, fumes, ash in the air. There are lots of ways these Face Masks can help keep me alive for longer.

God forbid there is a horrible disaster leading to a mass casualty event. You will be glad to be wearing this Face Mask instead of breathing in air full of rotting corpses. Want an even worse scenario? The Zombie Apocalypse has started and it is down to hand to hand combat after you run out of ammo. Do you want blood and ichor splashing in your face? What’s the point of surviving if you get infected through lack of preparedness?

Full Respirаtor Face Mask Scoring

When it comes so surviving this Full Respirаtor Face Mask can have a moderate impact on your survival. This Face Mask scores a 260/1000 on the survival scale.

  • Made of high-quality non-toxic silicone.
  • Non-toxic, soft, and comfortable.
  • Durable and safe.
  • Protects against organic chemical vapors and smoke.

Evaporative Cooling Towel

This Evaporative Cooling Towel is a key survival tool when the temperatures rise and there is no air conditioning in sight. Wet it down, twirl in the air, and lay it on the back of your neck to get relief.

This Evaporative Cooling Towel is the first thing on my Warm Weather Survival gear list. Why? Because it is dirt cheap and highly effective. Heat stroke can disable you permanently or kill you. It is not something to play with. This Evaporative Cooling Towel gives you the ability to stay out of that red zone before it becomes life threatening.

If you are playing, working, or out hiking cross country, you can have an effective strategy to keep cool with nothing but some water and this Evaporative Cooling Towel. If you are hiking that can mean the difference between having to go to ground until the temperatures drops versus being able to safely continue forward.

Evaporative Cooling Towel Scoring

Air conditioning is going to be a dream after the Zombie Apocalypse. Staying cool is going to come down to planning and being smart. Stay out of the sun unless you have no choices during the worst heat of the day and take care of business early in the morning or later in the day. This Cooling Towel is a key part of that strategy to stay cool when you have no air condition to escape to which is why it scores a

Safety Warning: Listen to your body. If you start to get overheated its better to find shade and use your Evaporative Cooling Towel to help cool off.

  • Instant cooling relief.
  • Last for up to 4 hours on a single soak.
  • Simply re-wet to increase cooling duration.
  • Absorbs water and creates a cooling sensation as it evaporates.
  • Machine washable with mild detergent and air dry.
  • Reduces the effects of heat exhaustion.
  • Fights fatigue while working or playing.
  • Can be used to help bring down fevers.
  • 13in x 29.5in / 33cm x 75cm

Cooling UPF 50 Bucket Hat

There is nothing worse than the sun in your eyes, except maybe sunburn on your nose. Which makes this Cooling UPF 50 Bucket Hat a must have to survive the sun. The brim on this UPF 50 Bucket Hat is perfect to keep the sun, and the rain off my glasses. If you have been to Florida, you know how quickly those two things can alternate.

I have one Hat that has now been to India twice, Florida six or seven times, and various other Caribbean islands. So I am confident that if you get these Cooling UPF 50 Bucket Hats they will last. I also like that I can scrunch it up and put it in my pack without having to worry about destroying it.

I spend a good bit of time out in the woods, and I like the “bronze green” Cooling UPF 50 Bucket Hat for blending in. When I’m just having fun I prefer the “Sea Palm” Hat. The bordered edge looks cool in my humble opinion.

Don’t wait until your out in the sun with burnt retinas before you think about buying a UPF 50 Bucket Hat. Plan ahead and keep that sun off your face. Once your out in the sun burning its already too late. That goes double for when a natural disaster, or the Zombie Apocalypse strikes. It’s going to be too late to gear up once you actually need the gear. Plan ahead, make sure you have the gear you need to survive now!

Cooling UPF 50 Bucket Hat Scoring

If you plan on being outside this UPF 50 Bucket Hat is a key piece of survival gear. It can have a moderate impact on your survival and scores a 410/1000.

  • Cools to 30 degrees below average body temperature when wet!
  • Easy to fold small for packing or sticking in your back pocket.
  • Stay active longer, reduce risk of heat stroke.
  • 3’ brim and UPF 50 fabric offers excellent sun protection.
  • Machine washable.

Snake Gaiters

If you spend time on the trail these Snake Gaiters can save your life. I like to hike off the beaten trail and see what nature looks like. That means coming into contact with the creatures that live there. I love snakes, but I don’t want to get bitten by one! When it comes to insurance, nothing beats these Snake Gaiters to keep me on the trail. Because the alternative might just be a helicopter ride to the closest hospital.

I’ve seen a timber rattlesnakes twice in my life. The first time I was climbing a rocky slope in Pennsylvania while hiking the Appalachian trail. I was looking for a discrete location to go to the bathroom, and when I thought I’d found the spot I looked over to see a curled up rattler on the rocks. Thankfully it was early and the sun hadn’t warmed the snake up yet. Needless to say I found another spot to use the privy and have respected the rattler ever since. The second was while hiking in New York. That snake let us know it was not happy when we came up onto it.

Thankfully everyone in my group is experience hikers wearing Snake Gaiters. We always tease each other that between us we’ve seen ten or twelve rattlers, and a hundred that saw us. It is the ones you didn’t see that you really have to worry about.

Snake Gaiters Scoring

If you have to hike cross country to get to safety these Snake Gaiters might just save your life.

BDU/ACU Cargo Pants

There is a reason that every military and many police forces use some form of BDU/ACU Cargo Pants. They are durable, comfortable, and can carry a lot of gear. This makes them perfect for everything from hiking to hunting and fishing. Keep the gear you need close at hand. When I’m hiking there is a Multi-Tool, some Fuel Bars and some other goodies on me at all times. With these cargo pockets I can carry so much gear discretely.

These Cargo Pants are great for year round wear. They are light enough for comfortable warm weather wear and make a great base layer when it gets colder. They are water resistant and the Duratex Ripstop Fabric can take a lot of abuse. That means that if you are washing them in a stream with some sand and pebbles, they are going to hold up.

These BDU/ACU Cargo Pants are perfect for everyday wear as well. The Khaki Pants go with just about everything and are perfect for any casual setting. This means that if I need to jump into action on short notice, I can quickly load up my pockets and get going.

BDU/ACU Cargo Pants Scoring

These BDU/ACU Cargo Pants  are that perfect mix of light and strong, and if you are moving across rough country, wearing shorts just isn’t always a good option. Be prepared for the next disaster or the Zombie Apocalypse and make sure you are wearing a pair of Cargo Pants when the sh*t hits the fan. These BDU/ACU Cargo Pants score a 305/1000 on the survival scale.

  • Snap closures.
  • Constructed to military and law enforcement standards.
  • Designed for durability, ruggedness and reliability.
  • 65% polyester 35% cotton Rip-stop fabric materials.
  • Duratex repels liquids, dirt, and other contaminants.
  • Fade, shrink, and wrinkle resistant.
  • Strong durable construction.
  • Two adjustable ankle cuff straps for pants blousing.

Insect Protection Net

I live between a river and a swampy bay. At night in the summer you can watch the insects swarm and cover street lights. Trying to camp or even just chill outside is really tough and I hate to cover myself in insect repellant just to have a drink while enjoying the cooler night air, which makes this Insect Protection Net a must have for camping, hiking, or just to enjoy some time outside.

When it comes to warm weather survival, this Insect Net is a must have. They are perfect for camping and hiking and will let you sleep in peace while still enjoying whatever breeze there is. All while protecting you from bug bites, itching, and a ton of insect born parasites and diseases.

Depending on where you are travelling, this Insect Net may be one of the most important bits of survival gear you can have. You will know that is true when you wake up in the morning and it is covered in mosquitoes.

Most people have no idea how much is spent by their local and state governments to keep insects at bay. Florida alone spends over $160 MILLION a year to kill biting insects. If a natural disaster or the Zombie Apocalypse stalls that effort for even one season, the bugs will be so thick that they will turn the noon day sun into an overcast day.

Insect Protection Net Scoring

I have one Insect Protection Net for each bedroom at my bolt hole and a few more to bunk outside to enjoy the outdoors. There is nothing like falling asleep watching the stars and listening to nature. Once things start to fall apart, these Insect Protection Nets will be critical survival gear. Once the power goes out, trust me when I say you will want to be sleeping outside and away from the trapped heat inside your home.

Still, this bit of gear is most useful during warm months, and it depends on where you live and where your bolt hole is, so this Protection Net scores a 455/1000.

  • Genuine U.S. G.I. field insect protection net.
  • Nylon ribbons at the sides and corners for tying it down.
  • Measures 68″ x 200″.

Long Sleeve UPF 50+ Sun Protection Hoodie

When it comes to protecting yourself and your family from sunburn, the first line of defense is always this Long Sleeve UPF 50+ Sun Protection Shirt Hoodie. Suntan lotion is great, but once my kids are running in different directions or off on their own (they are older) it is hard to make sure that reapplying suntan lotion actually happens. Getting a sunburn can ruin the day, a trip, and even a whole vacation. Yes, I’m speaking from experience.

Badly Burnt

That was a long time ago and ever since I have taken a UPF 50+ Sun Protection Shirt for each of my kids and made them wear it when they get out of the water or before they run off on their own. I’m sure these Shirts have saved myself and my family from dozens of burns over the years, and saved them from long term sun damage. Hopefully that pays off later in life with reduced skin cancer risks.

When it comes to surviving the blazing sun, you can’t do better than this Long Sleeve UPF 50+ Sun Protection Shirt Hoodie. Unlike suntan lotion it doesn’t wear off and it can be packed up easily so you have it when you need it.

UPF 50+ Sun Protection Hoodie Scoring

Suntan lotion is great but if you forget to reapply you are in trouble. This UPF 50+ Sun Protection Shirt protects you as long as you wear it and doesn’t leave any grease or grime behind. When it comes to survival it can have moderate impact on your survival and scores a 225/1000.

  • UPF 50+ UV.
  • Ultraviolet protection shirt shields your skin from harmful sun rays.
  • Breathable and lightweight fabric.
  • Comfortable for all day wear, even in the heat.
  • Moisture wicking & dry quickly.
  • Stylish sun protection shirt.
