Stay Informed and Safe this Fireworks Season

6/5/2019 (Permalink)

Let's have this month be Fireworks Safety Month.  The Fourth of July holiday is fast approaching and can be fun times with great memories.  Let SERVPRO of Rolla help make sure everyone knows about some firework safety.

If fireworks are legal where you live, keep these safety tips in mind:

  • Buy only legal fireworks (legal fireworks have a label with the manufacturer's name and directions) 
  • Store fireworks in a cool dry place
  • Never make your own fireworks
  • Kids should never play with fireworks. Fireworks like firecrackers, rockets, and sparklers are just as dangerous.
  • Always use fireworks outside and have a bucket of water and a hose nearby.
  • Stay clear of others setting off fireworks
  • Never throw or point fireworks at someone
  • Keep pets indoors while setting off fireworks.  Animals are very sensitive and can be frightened by the stress of fireworks.

The dangers of fireworks if not handled properly can result in injury to yourself and or others.  The best way to protect your family is not to use any fireworks at home, with leaving the lighting to the professionals.  Check your local areas for Firework displays.

Fireworks are meant to be enjoyed by all but you'll enjoy them much more knowing your family is safe.
