Summer Fire Safety Tips
Make sure that you and your family practice safe fireworks etiquette. Never point fireworks at another person or animal, and be aware that sparklers are not toys. Always supervise children, as sparklers can get extremely hot — got enough to even melt metal. When transporting fireworks, don’t carry them in your pocket or anywhere else on your body and avoid shooting fireworks from metal or glass containers.
