The Flood Fighter is a cylindrical tapered tool, open at both ends, and designed to aid in filling sandbags.
With the help of the Flood Fighter, safety concerns (such as shovel cuts and sand in the eyes) are virtually eliminated. When the Flood Fighter is inserted into the sandbag, it holds the bag upright without needing to be held by hand and provides a large, funnel-like opening at the top. Filling is greatly facilitated with the spilling reduced to an absolute minimum. When the sand reaches the start of the funnel on the top end, the tool is simply slipped out, leaving the bag upright and ready to be tied or folded. When more than one person is available, using several Flood Fighters, an assembly line technique can be used. Timed usage of the Flood Fighter has increased production by 300-500%.
