Home safety stressed during holidays
Texas A&M expert Wayne Keese warns holidays heighten fire hazards from trees and decorations. Use fresh trees, trim base, keep water, away from heat, and check lights for faults. Prefer UL labeled gear, indirect lighting for metal trees, and flameproof decorations. Maintain noncombustible decorations and a family escape plan. Never leave children unsupervised.
