With the holiday season upon us, the San Bernardino County Fire Dept. reminds residents of the following holiday decorating and natural Christmas tree safety tips:
Inspect all your lights and cords for breaks, fraying, and damaged connections. If you’re using an artificial tree, make sure it is made of safe, fireproof materials. Use miniature lights to produce less heat and reduce drying. Don’t forget to water your real tree EVERY DAY. Recycle your tree after the holidays. Never burn your natural tree; it can be explosive.
