If You Smell Natural Gas

  • Don’t use fire or electricity. Do not use, turn on, or turn off anything that might create a spark, such as matches, lighters, light switches, phones (including cell phones), flashlights, or any electrical equipment, even computers. Even the tiniest spark from these devices could ignite the natural gas.

  • Get out. Leave your home immediately and take others with you.

  • Call your gas utility. Go to a neighbor that you know or to a nearby pay phone and call your local natural gas utility to report the odor.
