🌲 Safe Christmas Tree Disposal Tips

✔ Water, Water, Water! 💧 – If you still have a live tree, make sure you keep it hydrated until disposal. A dry tree is a fire hazard waiting to happen!
✔ Check Local Ordinances! 🏡 – Many cities have designated drop-off locations or tree recycling programs. Don’t just leave your tree on the curb unless it’s allowed!
✔ Never Burn Your Tree in the Fireplace! 🚫🔥 – Dry pine burns too hot and too fast, creating a dangerous chimney fire risk!
✔ Dispose of It ASAP! ⏳ – Even a well-watered tree dries out quickly once it’s cut. The longer it sits in your home, the bigger the risk!

🚪 Exit Drills in The Home (E.D.I.T.H.)

Does your family have an emergency fire escape plan? If not, now is the perfect time to create one! 🚨🏃‍♂️

✔ Practice “2 Ways Out” – Identify two exits from every room and make sure kids know how to escape safely.
✔ Have a Meeting Spot – Choose a safe location outside your home where everyone will meet after exiting.
✔ Test Smoke Alarms Monthly! 🔥 – A working smoke detector doubles your chances of survival in a house fire!
✔ Fire Extinguisher Ready? – Keep an extinguisher in key areas like the kitchen, garage, and near your Christmas tree! Need help? We’ll install the right one for you!

🔐 Prevent Holiday Robberies & Stay Alert!

Unfortunately, post-holiday season is prime time for home burglaries. 🎁 Thieves know families have new valuables inside and many people travel. Here’s how to protect your home:

✔ Don’t Advertise Your Gifts! – Break down boxes inside before putting them in the trash. A big TV box sitting outside screams “Come rob me!” 📺🚫
✔ Use Timers for Lights! – Smart plugs and timers make it look like you’re home, even when you’re not. 💡
✔ Lock Doors & Windows! – Sounds simple, but you’d be surprised how many burglars walk right in through unlocked doors or windows! 🏡🔑
✔ Be Cautious on Social Media! – Avoid posting vacation plans or big-ticket gifts—you never know who’s watching! 👀📱
