Fire Hazards Threatening The Holidays
Fire Chief Harvey Vizina warns Christmas trees can become deadly fire sources. Freshly cut trees must stay in water, saw off an inch at a steep angle, and water them until disposal after Christmas Day. Do not rely on sprays. keep trees away from heat and ensure clear exits. Use UL labeled lights and inspect for frayed wires and loose connections.
