Holiday Fire Safety Tips and Tricks for Milton Homeowners

With the holidays coming up fast, you’re likely finding it difficult to plan everything. You’re worried less about fire damage and more about what to cook, who to invite and where to host gatherings. We’re here to help you worry less and enjoy your holiday season more. Our fire safety tips and tricks for Milton homes will help you reduce any fire hazards in your home.

Seasonal Fire Safety

If you have any safety concerns or questions this holiday season, you can contact the Milton Fire Rescue Department at (678) 242-2541.

The first step is to identify any fire hazards around the holidays. Lorraine Carli, vice president of NFPA’s Outreach and Advocacy division, understands the importance of understanding fire hazards. She said, “By knowing where potential fire hazards exist and taking the needed steps to prevent them, people can enjoy the season’s celebrations and traditions while keeping their families, guests and homes safe.”

  • Holiday Cooking — Cooking is the number one cause of holiday fires in the country year-after-year. The NFPA reports a 72% increase in home cooking fires on holidays.
  • Holiday Trees — A fire caused by a holiday tree is a common occurrence. NIST reports over 200 home fires involving trees annually.
  • Decoration the Home — We all love to decorate, but you must be mindful of the items you use. Check for light strings for signs of damage, including frayed or chewed wires.

What’s the Top Holiday Fire Prevention Tip for Your Community?

Keep a close eye while frying. Most cooking fires begin because someone is trying to fry a whole turkey without the proper precautions in place. For turkey specifically, ensure the bird thaws fully.
