10 WAYS TO STAY SAFE AS YOU DECK THE HALLS THIS HOLIDAY SEASON

Decorations like trees, lights and candles increase the risk of home fires during the holidays— with Christmas, New Year’s Eve and New Year’s Day being the top three days for home candle fires, according to the National Fire Protection Association. To avoid home fires and accidents, follow these guidelines to ensure everyone stays safe this holiday season!

Check all holiday light cords to make sure they aren’t frayed or broken Don’t string too many strands of lights together no more than three per extension cord

If are buying an artificial tree, look for the fire-resistant label When putting it up, keep it away from fireplaces, radiators and other sources of heat

If getting a live tree, make sure it’s fresh and water it to keep it fresh Bend the needles up and down to make sure no needles fall off.

If using older decorations, check their labels. Some older tinsel is lead-based. If using angel hair, wear gloves to avoid irritation. Avoid breathing in artificial snow.

When decorating outside, make sure decorations are for outdoor use and fasten lights securely to your home or trees. If using hooks or nails outside, make sure they are insulated to avoid an electrocution or fire hazard.

If using a ladder, be extra careful. Make sure to have good, stable placement and wear shoes that allow for good traction.
