Christmas trees
Take fire precautions at home during the holiday season. Ensure that your live tree is fresh as the needles should be hard to pull from the branches and don’t break when bent between your fingers. Place the tree away from heat sources such as fireplaces, vents and radiators. Check the water level daily and make sure the stand is filled with water. Make sure the tree is not blocking doorways and is out of traffic. Look for the “Fire Resistant” label if you buy an artificial tree.
