- Stop using showers, toilets, sinks and laundry until the septic system is checked.
- Do not step into the shower or handle sewage-soaked towels.
- Avoid splashing water or using household chemicals on the spill.

Local Conditions That Shape the Drying Plan
Roughly 11% of the local housing stock was built before 1960, but material readings still control cleanup decisions. The typical home in the ZIP codes around Jamul was built in the 1980s. Subfloor seams can allow wastewater to move beyond the first visible spot. Moisture readings help show whether the floor assembly is affected.
Changing weather does not tell the crew which floor layers absorbed wastewater.
