Great weather lately has folks thinking ahead to summertime. Long days, sunshine, warm weather and…smoke? Let’s hope not. (But probably 😭😮💨🫠)
95% of wildfires are stopped by local initial attack aka fire departments and various wildland crews. But sometimes the fires get too large and out of control before enough resources can get there. Every summer we take on a handful of local brush fires, and every year our call volume increases. The point is, it’s good to think ahead and have a prevention plan in place for your own yard and activities this summer to lesson the risk to our community, which could very well help if we’re tied up on other calls when someone lights their trees on fire.
Outdoor burning during a burn ban? No. Flame thrower on your weeds? Absolutely not. Mowing a field with hidden spark making rocks? Wtf. Fireworks around dry grass? Don’t even think about it brother.
Human caused wildfires account for over 84% of all wildfires in the U.S. and are generally more destructive, frequent, and long lasting than natural, lightning-ignited fires. Human ignited fires typically occur closer to communities, leading to more threats to infrastructure.
