Christmas Tree Safety
As you deck the halls this holiday season, be fire smart. A small fire that spreads to a Christmas tree can grow large very quickly.
~ One of every 3 home Christmas fires are caused by electrical problems
~ Although Christmas tree fires are not common, when they do occur, they are more likely to be serious
~ A heat source too close to the tree causes roughly one in every four of the fires
