We certainly do whatever we are able to with our home flood control, to try to prevent it from taking place.
Wherever we may live and however dry our local climate, we're prone to floods. If you do not think so, hold off until one of those occasional heavy thunderstorms happens to sit on top of your property and not go anywhere. The drainage system may be easily flooded and water accumulates.
When water happens to build-up around your home and has no place to go, trouble is not far away. Old foliage could be blocking drainpipes, or there may be simply too much water around. When it backs up it'll come even nearer to your house and this is when you need home flood control, without a doubt.

You do have to make sure that you are safe when you're using it though, because water, if it gets into those electric sockets, might hurt you.
