Of course, Hurricane Milton has left major destruction in its wake, with many problems besides flesh-eating bacteria. Large segments of Florida are without power due to the damaged and destroyed infrastructure. The storm also caused massive property destruction, with some estimates putting the financial damage at over $1 billion.

Damaged buildings, including homes, can be dangerous to enter and try to clear out or repair. Downed power lines left behind by the powerful winds are another major danger for those trying to clean up the mess.
