Animals cause nearly 1,000 structure fires a year. These animals can be domesticated (pets) or wildlife like mice, squirrels, chipmunks, etc. Here are some ways you can prevent kids from starting fires:
-
Keep wires and cords out secured and out of reach of animals​
-
Just like children, pets can turn stoves on so keep control knobs removed
-
Charge devices out of reach of pets since they could drag them onto flammable surfaces ​​
-
Just like devices, keep smaller heating appliances away from reach for the same reason
