Pets and Fire Safety Tips

Did you know that pets and wild animals are partly responsible for starting about 750 home fires in the United States each year? According to the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) pets are partly responsible for starting fires involving cooking equipment, fireplaces and chimney, space heaters, lamps, bulbs, wiring, and candles. SERVPRO^® of Tustin and SERVPRO^® of Orange/Villa Park have been mitigating fire damage emergencies in the Irvine area for years. Here are some safety tips from the NFPA to keep your pets safe around fire:

Safety Tips

• Pets are curious. They may bump into, turn on, or knock over cooking equipment. Keep pets away from stoves and countertops
• Keep pets away from candles, lamps, and space heaters
• Always use a metal or heat-tempered glass screen on a fireplace and keep it in place.
• Keep pets away from the chimney’s outside vents and have a “pet-free zone” of at least three feet away from the fireplace. Glass doors and screens can stay dangerously hot for several hours after the fire goes out.
• Watch pets to make sure they don’t chew through electrical cords.
