A friend of mine just bought himself a 75,000 Euro Truck. Fully equipped for the apocalypse... After our first little trip to the local forest, the engine did not start...you can have a 100k truck, but it's worthless if you can't have some spare spark plugs with you to start that thing.
Oregano tincture is an antibiotic. Knocked out a sinus infection for me more than once. I use the essential oil as well. Mix 80 proof alcohol with dried oregano, make sure herb is covered. Let sit for 6 to 8 weeks (shake occasionally), strain the oregano. Voila! You have an antibiotic tincture you can take internally.
Thank you for that info😊
TY for remedy for sinus infection, how much dosage to use of the Oregano tincture and where is buy this? Thank you for sharing!
Geno Victor I make my own tincture. It's very simple using the directions I wrote above.
@@TheTerriwebb gotcha TY!
Thx
I love that you always get to the point and then shut your yap when you're done. Way to many UA-camrs waste time prattling on about nonsense. I know when I click on one of your videos that you're not going to waste my time.
Thank you Ed!
I have 200 white wash cloths, laundered and packed in zip-lock bags. One day there will be no paper products. I don't want to think about what I'll use those cloths for. I'm buying more wash cloths next month. Also adding several white hand towels to my list.
Don't forget a squeegee bottle to use as a personal bidet if paper products go away.
You can also buy large packs of toilet paper tabs in a small bag- they are dehydrated to the size of a quarter, you rehydrate with a couple drops of water to make a wet wipe.
Don't forget paper maps. Old school navigation
If you have AAA, call for free maps mailed to you.
I'd add backup eyeglasses and a supply of contacts and solution. For contacts, access to clean water is essential, so having pairs of eyeglasses should definitely be prioritized.
Whenever I go for my annual eye exam, I always order new glasses, even if my Rx hasn't changed much. As long as my insurance covers a new pair annually, might as well get them and have backups and redundancies.
Speaking as a woman, don’t forget after birth supplies, breast pads, nursing/pumping bras, manual pumps as well as electric + extra supplies as the parts get worn out quickly, breast milk bags, freeze dry breast milk and colostrum, etc. great video! ❤
Ikr !! I am 50 so I don't need any feminine items but I have them as they ba used for other purposes. Also, don't forget deodorant, nappy wipes and those sorts of things.
Thanks for watching and commenting Jalisa!
@Lyn Medlin I stocked up for my granddaughters, other family members and neighbors. We are all women together and we share this exclusive club as females.
That's something i never seen anyone suggest ☝️🤙I try to stockpile birth control & Condoms to avoid unwanted pregnancies. Keep prepping Stay Safe & God bless
@@SwtIslandGurl808 plan b would be great prep to stock as well! Great ideas!
One thing I haven’t seen any videos on is weather prediction. If shtf and you don’t have access to weather reports, a barometer and a wind sock and a little bit of knowledge is better than nothing
Jigsaw Puzzles. A teaspoon of Baking Soda mixed in a glass of water helps acid reflex.
Thanks for watching and commenting Judith!
@@diypreppertv Love your videos - precise & to the point. Judi
Being military we use the term beans, bullets band-aids batteries and bad guys. Adding batteries to the list would be super useful and something to tie stuff down like zip ties and rope. Great video!
Thank you Joe!
J.R. any chance you can list the items in your descriptions when you create these lists? Not in specific detail (like each book title), but just a general list of the categories you've outlined would be great. I watch all of your videos in full, but sometimes I refer back to them. A list in the description would be cool. 👍🏾
cant believe how some doom and gloomers and fearmongering moneymakers got so many subs, with your way of thinking and presenting you deserve a lot more attention. thanks dude.
Thank you!
Yeah, I had been hanging on to some channels for pure entertainment purposes, but even that has gotten insanely boring.
Lately, I've been moving on to content that will help me even in non-SHTF life situations. Gardening, fermenting/culturing foods, easy pantry cooking, dehydrating foods, and suchlike.
I agree. Lots of solutions and thoughtful positive content designed to help the listener and not make them anxious and depressed.
I agree. Very straightforward, non biased info and suggestions. No fear mongering.
On the topic of books, I absolutely love “No Grid, Survival Projects”. It’s an amazing book with good step by step instructions and photos.
Skin-so-soft from Avon is great repellent. Just makes you smell pretty..lol works great though. Completely non toxic.
It also moisturizes!
have been using original scent skin so soft for over forty years. never a mosquito or tick bite. big bottle of oil lasts years. put some in a ziploc with cotton balls or rags and rub it on all over. don't forget top of your head!! Avon still made in USA
I buy SSS in bulk and make my own horse fly spray with water, vinegar, citronella and eucalyptus oils.
Something to consider in regard to feminine products: Sanitary napkins can be used for wound care.
Book: The Self-Sufficient Life And How To Live It by John Seymour. Absolutely priceless.
Fishing line makes a great sewing thread I use the clear one it hides and you can sew any color it blends right in and you only have one item and can also help you fish I love multiple use items
Thanks for sharing Cheryl!
That’s a great idea. Thank you!
This is another great idea, I'll be adding this one! Thank you!
Dental floss works great too
@@flamingmoe1805 Another great idea! Thank you!
The gift of fear, by Gavin de Becker is one of the best books I have ever read. I have read a couple of others by him. It's not about being afraid, it's about how do you react when the hair stands up on the back of your neck, or your gut is trying to tell you something. Do you pay attention to that nagging little feeling? Or do you dismiss it. Pay attention, your life depends on it.
JR You always think out of the box. You cover prepper items that most people don't think about. Today I had to finely get around to darning socks & a few shirts that had holes. That reminded me to stock up on spools of thread. Repairing clothing is something I hadn't prepped for. Your videos makes me also think out of the box. Thank you very much. 😊
Thank you Mary!
If you are suffering from severe radiation burns you should consider having strong pain medications or something to take your life.
My sister has our grandmother's treadle sewing machine and I have stocked a butt load of thread, needles, material, buttons and other sewing items including 3 in 1 oil for the sewing machine. Be safe my friend.
@@lewis9888 Wonderful idea. I remember my grandmother's old sewing machine. I would love to find one. Best to you and yours. Mary 🇺🇸
@@Coyotes-galore There may still be some old Treadle Sewing Machines in Antique Stores for you to locate one.
I thought I squared away everything for when we had an extended power outage but I forgot proper oil for the generator.
Thanks for watching Mark!
The large contractor bags can also be used as body bags.
be sure to have a sharpener for your spade
LOL that was literally my first thought. 🤣
We picked up contractor bags, mouse traps, ant traps, flypaper and bug/hornet spray. We replace trash bags as we use them to keep a certain amount on hand. Keep fasteners, nails, screws, variety of tape and glues. Zip ties. Most home owners forget septic treatment for their preps.
Thanks for sharing!
My husband is the "king" of zip ties, nuts, bolts, screws, nails, and buckets.
@@SharonAnnMenefee I didn't know I was married. 🤔
@@SharonAnnMenefee 😊
@@jacobv4564 😊
Liquid IV is a great source of electrolytes. Our medics stock it at work for clients in need. 👍
Thanks for sharing Eric!
Few things I use - Spray foam insulation - great for blocking little cracks, holes, etc. Inside & outdoors.
WD-40 - because I always need more.
Thank you for your hard work - greatly appreciate you.
Thanks for sharing!
Spray foam is not a good long-term prep. It has a short shelf life. Usually about one year from manufacture and unlike canned food, it is a pretty firm date.
@@richardelliott9511 Thank you for the information. Have an older house and seem to be well stocked with little holes & crackes. 😊 Hadn't thought about the shelf life and will be sure to keep an eye on dates.
Thank you for your help, Mr Elliott.
Take care, be safe.
Sorry to say that while spray foam is incedibly usefull stuff it is not a good prepper item because of it's short shelf life, which is generally a year or less. This is one of the items where the expiration date is serious.
WD40 is great too but for longer storage I would stay clear of the pressurized cans and get the plastic pump spray version or the metal gallon cans along with a metal pump oiler.
I went to the supermarket in my country today and I had a few surprises:
1. There was no "good" soap. There was only One brand Palmolive to which many people are allergic. Please get your good stuff.
2. My niece paid 10 euros for 2 packs of bottled water. A pack has 9 litres in it. Man, I smiled knowing I have a Berkey.
3. Get zinc cream. I don't know what they are putting in the feminine products but many women in my entourage are complaining of severe irritations due to the napkins.
Many of the things in this video I did stock up on and now, I cannot get any more. If you can, you are lucky.
there is a recall on some palmolive soap right no
@@nancywolf3786 now wonder there are so many in the shelf. No one would touch it.
Did you mention cranberry capsules for UTIs? Not always needed, but when it is, it is. 😁 great list 👍
I've never really found them to help me. What kind do you use?
@D Cantrell just what I could find. They weren't extraordinary for me either. I always tried to find the OTC meds that make your pee yellow. That was always best I thought. But my cousin loves cranberry capsules
The OTC that causes orange urine doesn't kill the bacteria. It only helps with pain. It's important to treat yhe cause, the bacteria.
@@dorothyduvall6503 thank you. Excellent advice
Cystex pills are what you are referring to. Cranberry and also apple cider vinegar help treat the infection. Lots of clean water drinking too. A jase medical kit would be ideal. Bacterium for the win if you catch it early.
Some good medications, although a bit hippy (but don't go off) would be clove oil for tooth pain, neem oil for scabies and plant pesticides, teatree for bug bites, cuts and to prevent nits, camomile for soothing a rash, these can all be bought in small glass bottles for cheap, but prevent you rinsing through the painkillers, anticeotic creams and other bits you might need for more serious situations x
Not hippie at all, those are all legit. Chamomile is also great for treating eye irritations. I've also been using tea tree for over 30 years, it's fantastic stuff.
Also if you can avoid using it for general consumption, hard alcohol has a variety of uses. From pain relief, antiseptic, fuel, and trade good.
Tobacco seeds and knowing how to grow it may be better than coffee for bartering
The ships' Medicine Chest and Medicine at Sea is a wealth of knowledge as its given as a totality of all that you need in a situation where you are cut off from any outside help.
There's a company named Phiffer that has a window screen repair kit that contains the screen, spline, and roller. These are sold at Lowes and other hardware stores
Instead of Gatorade powder use liquid iv or pedialyte makes powder as well those tend to have more electrolytes and less sugar
You can make your own electrolytes. 16-32 oz mineral water.
2 tbsp lime juice.
¼ cup sliced cucumber.
1 tbsp chopped fresh mint.
A dash of stevia.
½ teaspoon salt (for sodium)
400 mg potassium chloride powder (for potassium)
¼ teaspoon of magnesium malate (for magnesiu
EWWW hate bugs & rodents- all stocked up all the time LOL Also, have been using smelly dryer sheet to ward off mice in the house- it really works. Always by bug spray, suntan lotion, after bite at the end of the summer season when on clearance-SCORE
Coffee- can never have enough coffee- FYI- My Patriots Freeze Dried instant coffee is the best- can almost always find it on sale.
LOVE picking up jars of screws & nails & such at summer yard sales.
ZIP TIES- buy them, have a HUGE stock pile
Paper products, plates, towels, tissues, TP and plastic utensils
Don't forget Vinegar- can use for food preservation, cleaning etc...Thanks JR
If you’re fortified from the inside over your closed curtains keeps the visibility to a minimum. Building a protected defensive position inside covering your weakest security positions is wise but always leave an easy way to escape. I like your tip on making it look looted.
Thanks for watching!
Outstanding that you are always thinking five steps ahead of the normal prepper. Thanks for the advice I will utilize this video. Stay safe and thanks.
Thank you Billy!
Vomit bags (Emesis bags). You might be drinking sketchy water and eating unrefrigerated food with utensils and plates that are not necessarily clean. That can lead to vomiting. Since you may not have a flushable toilet, these bags can be very handy to have around. If you don't have them, then you might be wasting larger trash bags to solve this problem.
These bags are disposable and easily & quickly sealed after use. You might want to have a lot around. Amazon has a 50-pack for just $17.
Thanks for sharing Matthew!
Great idea
Thank you! I didn't know there was such a thing.
Keep those plastic grocery bags too! Perfect for smaller clean ups where you don’t want to waste a good garbage bag over
James Wesley Rawles' 1st book, PATRIOTS, is an incredible resource and a great read, read it first!.
Just subbed...good information and I like your presentation...some spend 10 minutes talking about what they are going to talk about...you get straight to the point. Refreshing!
Thank you!
A good thing to have in the cupboard is insect screen that can be stuck over the windows with velcro. Easy to set up, and keeps rooms ventilated in the summer with no need to spray raid to kill insects that fly in. There is something very satisfying about seeing wasps bounce off the screen and fly away. 😁
Same thing for your car windows. Greater for outdoor movies or on the go.
Great idea!! I'll be adding that one to my preps!
Keep pesticides out of reach of your pets as well. A friend's dog ate a block of rat bait; if I hadn't seen it eating it, the dog would have died.
Hey, really appreciate you featuring my book (and especially that you mentioned the new edition of it). Thanks so much!
You’re welcome Jim! Thanks for watching!
I’ve been trying to make sure I have a few recipes for my long term food storage. Quinoa is actually a very nice thing to have. Cooks quickly, complete protein relatively neutral flavor by itself. Only problem is it’s expensive, $3.35 a pound!
In case anyone is interested, there are reusable period underwear out there. Less waste, more use, also good for bug out/on the go by packing less. Also think of how things were done in the past. Not as sanitary unless you plan ahead. Remember some of these things can also help (when you get older or have bladder/other issues) with general leakage ...or for after you have a baby. Tampons are also good to have for your medical kit. Every woman and situation is different so plan accordingly
Agreed. The key with those period panties, and also the cups, is access to clean water. They require extensive and regular cleaning. If not, major problems can pop up. For that reason, I still keep the traditional products stocked, but have these alternative products on hand for barter or to use as a last resort.
I have a suggestion Aussies like me who watch your channel Bob Cooper's Outback Survival.Thanks you for another great video.🇦🇺
Another great video. Thank you! God Bless you and your family🙏🏼
Since you mentioned books and recipes, maybe think about having a few different cookbooks on hand. I have collected several over the years at yard sales, flea markets and some have been given to me.
The Gift of Fear is an excellent recommendation - had my kids read it so they aren't pressured by societal norms into situations they don't want to be in.
I disagree, fear is being afraid of what you don't know! Teach them what may make them afraid, then teach them to learn about it, to prevent fear, knowledge is truly power, as in teaching them about God the father. God is not the creator of fear but power and a sound mind.
@@dcantrell5584 it's a book. Called The Gift of Fear. Call it discernment or vigilance or heightened awareness if you don't like the word fear. It's a great book on staying safe.
The book is about listening to your instincts, to override societal norms and be aware. Like getting into an elevator with a stranger even though you don't want to, but you do it so you don't offend anyone. It's a good book - especially for older kids - good kids - who have had a life time of instruction to "be nice" and are well behaved. I want them to be nice, but more so I need them to listen to their instincts, the ones that tells them when something is hinky and act to save themselves rather than smothering that voice in order to fit in.
BRILLIANT! How does one teach Discernment? So very important at any stage of life. I applaud you!
@@joannc147 Sarcasm over discernment?!? You don't question/compare stuff daily? Like YT comments for example. Discerning whether something really IS a good deal? If something you're doing is safe or not? Or in your own relationships, if someone is trustworthy or generous or angry or whatever?
Extra work gloves, hiking or hunting boots, socks, bicarbonate soda for oral hygiene, activated charcoal, unprocessed raw brown sugar...
Your channel may be 70% male, but you haven't checked out Rose Red Homestead, Mamabear Prepping, Survival Lilly and there are countless other female preppers. In many households it's Grandma!
Rose Red Homestead is my favorite!
@@decormiamour Mamabear is great with lists. She's come up with the great lists that have helped me look at things beyond the basics.
I'm the prepper in my household...thankfully my husband usually goes along with everything! 😁
Books on raising animals you want to raise for breeding or food.Herbals and uses.
I buy baking soda by the large bags. It is useful for so much but especially for a free choice supplement for goats and sheep to help prevent digestive issues.
That's definitely something that I wish was addressed more often, prepping for livestock care.
Coffee and liquid IV is the 2 main dry drink mixes we love to put away
I have a long and well thought out plan. Thankfully I had many years to get situated, so hopefully I won't have to implement everything, but outside of some extremely atypical scenario, I'll be ready.
I have been practicing my skills for situations.
Firestarting.
Saving glas and plastic containers for storage.
Preparing for home invasion.
Buying survival items tht could be used for barter.
Learning how to grow food.
How reuse cans.
You did briefly mention it, but, especially with longer power outages oil use of small generators is often underestimated. Most require an oil change every 50 or 100 hours, but people forget that 50 hours is only two days, okay 4 days when only used 12 hours a day. In a pinch filtering and reusing oil might be an option one time but not recommended. Most engine oils start to acidify at the end of their lifespan and that can't be filtered and does diminish the engine's lifespan.
Thanks for sharing!
@@diypreppertv Thank YOU for sharing. You do the hard work with these informative and helpful videos with a positive attitude. I just try to show my appreciation and help the channel by generating some participation.
Oh man, the book recommendation portion could be its own separate video! Saved this for later so I can reference back. Abigail Gehring books (Back to the Basics and Homesteading) are some of my favorites. Also appreciate that you say "aholt" like my grandparents did lol.
Thanks for watching Rina!
He has a video going over a bunch of prepping books! Check them out, he does a great job explaining what each book is about 😊
@@jalisak Will do. For the ones that are available at my local libraries, I'm also using the Libby app and taking screenshots to have a digital backup. Maybe a tad bit paranoid, but I feel like I'm in good company there. 📚
@@rinamorgan8795
Besides there being tons of declassified military manuals that cover almost EVERYTHING!
All kinds of survival categories, from cold weather survival, trapping, first aid up to surgery at home... providing you know where else to look.
And they are all in pdf format. So you can print all the relevant information, or take as many detailed notes as you can. Unless you have a good printer and a lot of paper and cartridges for your printer, some of those manuals are good sized, so you may create a full library if you are interested.
@@edmoran869 That's awesome advice. Our printer is definitely kaput, but I'm going to save a lot of PDFs tonight!
Thanks so much for all the ideas, books especially!
Great vid! Lots of important reminders.
Excellent vid, JR. Love the content, especially, the emphasis on having all the various survival and Off Grid books available. I don’t have many of those titles…so I’ll be looking for them to add to my collection.
It's a hefty up front investment, but, high impact windows, are good to have. They look normal but are really sturdy. As a kid, I know I put a few baseballs through windows. If you live in a hurricane prone area, they can be a lifesaver.
Learned from a guy who does bug spraying for a living, spray 2 feet up the wall and 2 feet out from the wall. That’s what he does and is very effective. Outside the structure of course.
I recently subscribed to your channel thank you for all the information. Love your channel
TYSM, sharing!
Awesome information! Thanks 😊
Lymes....ugh. subscribed! God bless you and everyone 🙏!
Thank you for sharing this information with us.
You’re welcome Shelia! Thanks for watching and commenting!
Thank you JR! Good tips. Always enjoy your videos.
Thank you Mary Jo!
Excellent work, thank you for the video! 😊 Outdoor Survival Skills, by Larry Dean Olsen, is one of my favorite books.
Your sharp, the pest control is brilliant
Great video JR! I literally bought 4 books from your recommendations in this video great job keep up the good work.
Thank you!
I definitely need to up my book game. I have plants, first aid, food preservation and entertainment books, but need more outdoor survival books. Thanks for the list JR!
You’re welcome Tamara!
Another great video from you. Thanks for the tips.
Thank you!
Nice coverage of easily forgotten items. good info.
Great stuff!
A video on bugging out with pets would be helpful.
Thanks for sharing!
Plastic dog food bags are good to use for trash if they have the zip closure.
Tools and how-to books are super important.
You are very knowledgeable young man & thank You for sharing!!!
Thank you Elizabeth!
Awesome list JR and thanks for sharing. I definitely need to invest in the volumes of prepper books out there. Cheers from Alberta!
As always an enjoyable and informative video. Thanks JR!
Thank you Jay!
Thanks 👍
Diamataceous earth in food grade is great for getting rid of most insects. Kill mice and rats with a mix of baking soda, flour and sugar. Worked great at my place.
Thanks for sharing Paul!
Have to be careful not to inhale the dust from DE. It's very irritating to lung tissue.
Thanks for reminding us
Pests! Oh I had not considered that, thank you. As for electrolytes - remember they are nothing more than salt and sugar. From my sailing days, we always kept a “sweet” and a “salty” on board. Think juice/soda and some pretzels. Note - never consider tea or coffee as “liquid”, these are diuretics to your system. ❤ A former SEAL told me, “Fear is good. It will keep you alive.” Great video, thanks for all those reminders!
I've been stocking up on First Saturday Lime. I don't use all of my monthly subscription, but I let it run because it's a fantastic (and very safe) pest deterrent for home, garden, and livestock. We've already had one delivery delay because of supply issues, so I'm glad I have several bags on hand...just in case.
Also a good way to keep pests out of your home around your property is certain herbs and plants you can grow
Thank you, good advice.
Great insight! Keep up the good work!
Thank you Gerald!
there are some great recipes for easy pan fried bread on youtube
As a woman, get a menstrual cup and you’re good forever. Pads and tampons take up a lot of space. Also I’m the main planner in the household ;)
Painting tarps are also good to have.
Apple cider vinegar add garlic powder add honey store in jar mix up store refrigerator take every morning and at bed time will keep you well take year around
My dog gets a monthly pill for fleas, heartworm and ticks. It's not really cheap but I can get extras and is easy to feed. That dog eats anything. I also think you are the only prepper I've heard mention feminine products. Sanitary napkins can also be used a pads for wounds. It is actually what they were originally designed for, until someone thought about women needing them.
I wonder how hard it would be to grind freeze dried corn into masa or flour? Might be a better way to store it longterm.
It may work for a porridge in a pinch, but as far as flour or masa, dent corn is going to be your best bet.
Hydrated lime is also a necessity for water canning eggs
Another book resource is "The Manual of Practical Homesteading" by John Vivian. If you can you should learn to grow your own food while you can.
I bought doz cans of hotshot at the end of season xl cans for 1.00 ea last nov!!! Got traps and coffee!!!!
Great list, love how you always give us the not normal. One thing that blew my mind....who would forget coffee and who would barter it away???? LOL. I feel like condoms is a very overlooked prep and for ladies, liners. Have a great weekend!
Thanks for sharing!
First time I've ever heard of prepping condoms.
@@Rubio_Eric I think a lot of us would like to not be pregnant in a shtf. Lol
@coffee first, then speak no doubt....I'd hate to be pregnant at anytime much less after shtf lol!
@@Rubio_Eric LOL
mixing many essential oils work really really well as mosquito repellants etc. they are also good for dog fleas. for sure do your research. we keep a box full of essential oils and also have a copper still or whatever it's called to make our own from plants in the garden. you can add them to shampoos and creams also.
I purchased a predator generator recently, bought a replacement carb on Amazon for $25! Nine times outa ten it will be the carb that goes bad first!!!!
