Keep Fall Fire Free

10/8/2020 (Permalink)

The fall season brings cooler temperatures, beautiful colors, and an abundance of outdoor activities. Plan ahead this season to help ensure it is safe and fire-free.

• Fall decorations, like dried flowers and cornstalks, are highly flammable. Keep these and other decorations away from open flames and heat sources, including light bulbs and heaters.

• Keep emergency exits clear of decorations no nothing blocks escape routes.

• Teach children to stay away from open flames. Be sure they know how to stop, drop, and roll if their clothing catches fire.

• Remember safety first when choosing a Halloween costume. Consider avoiding billowing fabric.

• It is safest to use a flashlight or battery-operated candle in a jack-o-lantern. Use extreme caution if using a real candle.
