Call the bank, immediately (if not sooner) and place a Stop Payment on the check number. This will require you to pay a fee to the bank for this process, but it will be cheaper in the long run just for your own peace of mind.

If the check is then presented for payment, the computer systems will "flag" that check and prohibit payment to whomever is presenting it for payment.
