10 Tips That Help You Play Safe around Fireworks

  • It's part of tradition to have fireworks for
    July Fourth and New Year's, so it's just really
    difficult to get people to stop using fireworks.

  • You should always think about safety first when
    dealing with fireworks.
  • Did you know that about half of the injuries
    related to fireworks are among children younger
    than 15 years?

Tip 1
  • Never let kids use fireworks by themselves,
    because even Sparklers that are considered as
    safe for children, burn at very high temperatures
    of 1832º - 3632º Fahrenheit and can easily ignite
    clothing.

Tip 2
Teach children "Stop, Drop and Roll" if their
clothes catch fire, and show them how to put out
fireworks by using water or fire extinguisher.

Tip 3
  • Make sure to light fireworks only on a smooth,
    flat surface away from the house, dry leaves, and
    flammable materials.

Tip 4
Keep any type of ladder, pole, or tie lines used
to set up fireworks at least ten feet from power
lines.
Tip 5
Never carry fireworks in your pocket or use them
indoors, and dont ever relight a used firework.

Tip 6
  • Make sure to purchase legal fireworks only. Also,
    dont make your own fireworks or use homemade
    fireworks.

Tip 7
Alcohol and Fireworks is an explosive mix. So
dont light fireworks if youve consumed alcohol.

Tip 9
  • Clean up all the sticks, wires, tubes, etc., that
    are left around after your fireworks. Soak them
    overnight in a bucket of water to be sure they
    are out.

Tip 10
Many pets are terrorized by fireworks. Ensure
that your pets are in an area they feel secure
in, or lock them indoors. Don't take them to
community fireworks displays.
