Fireworks Safety Reminders:

•Keep Body Parts Away from Lit Fireworks:
Never place any part of your body over a firework when lighting it.

•Be Mindful of Pets and Wildfire Risk: Fireworks can frighten pets, causing them to run away or become injured. Fireworks can also start wildfires—use extreme caution, especially in dry conditions.

•Supervise Children: Never allow young children to play with or ignite fireworks, including sparklers. Sparklers can reach temperatures over 2,000°F and cause serious burns. Consider safer alternatives like glowsticks, popping streamers, or confetti.

•Choose a Safe Location: Use fireworks outdoors in a clear, open area away from homes, vehicles, dry grass, trees, and other flammable materials.

•Dispose of Fireworks Properly: Soak used fireworks in water and place them in a metal trash can, away from buildings and anything that can burn.

•Follow Manufacturer Instructions: Always read and follow the instructions provided by the manufacturer.

•Monitor for Fire Hazards: Watch for smoldering debris or embers after fireworks have been extinguished, as they can reignite and cause fires.

•Never Relight Malfunctioning Fireworks: Do not pick up or try to relight fireworks that haven’t ignited fully—they can go off unexpectedly and cause injury.

•Check Local Laws: Know your local fireworks regulations. If your area is experiencing drought conditions, do not use fireworks or sparklers, as they can easily start fires.
Be Prepared: Keep a bucket of water, garden hose, or fire extinguisher nearby in case of fire or malfunction.

•Protect Your Hearing: Fireworks can exceed 150 decibels and cause immediate hearing damage. Take steps to protect your ears.

•Have fun: be in the moment & enjoy the moment 🎆
