Our local news last night ran a story on "what exactly to do with that plastic and duct tape."  The plastic is to be pre-cut and labeled with where it goes. (Door, floor vent, air vent, etc).  Put the biggest pieces up first.  You're only supposed to seal off one room, and not the whole house, although you are supposed to be sure all doors/windows are closed, and the heat/a/c is off.  Then go to an interior windowless room (ie, a bathroom).  Procede to seal off doors, vents, cover outlets with duct tape, ditto faucets/pipes.  Stay for 2-3 hours, by that time, if it's a chemical hazard, the cloud should have passed.

I'm still not buying plastic sheeting . . .
