Best Answer

The most important item in a disaster kit is Water. This is because it is the biggest necessity, and that is the item in which you will need before all others if you wish to survive.

-edit-

This depends on where you live and what are the possible disasters that could happen.

One example would be, if you lived on the north-west side of Mt. Rainer in Washington. Since there is a threat of volcanic eruption and you are living exactly in the path of the 'flow' out of the volcano. Your disaster kit most important item might be a whistle. You could blow it hard and fast over and over to wake anyone sleeping to get up and RUN with your family, no cars, but RUN to high ground to escape being killed.

Which is the best important item to includ in a basic first aid kit?

Each item is very important and you should always check that everything is there, before going on a trip. The most important item would be antiseptic spray/pads/tissues/wipes.
