Is there a way to prevent sinkholes?
There are warning signs that a sinkhole, like the Baltimore sinkhole, is about to happen. A brochure issued by the Southwest Florida Water Management District lists several sinkhole warning signs, which include slumping trees or fence posts, formation of small ponds in areas where water has not collected before, wilting of small, circular areas of vegetation; and structural cracks in walls.
Baltimore sinkhole has recently caused extensive damage to the city. For more information on sinkholes which can save your life, click here and here.
