safety tip of the week
Fireworks Safety
As you celebrate, help keep the holiday safe for everyone!
• Leave fireworks to the professionals whenever possible.
• Keep children and pets a safe distance away from fireworks.
• Never allow young children to handle or light fireworks.
• Always have a bucket of water or a garden hose nearby.
• Light only one firework at a time and move away quickly.
• Never relight a firework that didn't go off.
• Soak used fireworks in water before throwing them away.
• Never use fireworks while impaired by alcohol or drugs.
Remember, even sparklers burn at temperatures of up to 2,000°F—hot enough to cause severe burns.
If a fire starts or someone is seriously injured, call 911 immediately.
Have a fun, safe, and responsible celebration from all of us at the SBM Fire Department!
