Protecting your home from wildfires has evolved since the 60s! 🏡🌲 Rounding off Wildfire Preparedness Week we’re taking a look back in time and reminding you how defending your home has changed. Defensible space now extends up to 100 feet from your property, divided into three zones. This space is key to slowing or stopping wildfire spread and protecting your home from embers, flames, or heat. It also gives firefighters a safer area to defend your property. Let's work together to safeguard our communities! #WildfireSafety Learn more about how to protect your property at ReadyForWildfire.org

Campfire And Bonfire Safety 🔥 Enjoy Responsibly Nearly 90% of U.S. wildfires are human-caused, often starting from campfires or bonfires. To stay safe, check local regulations, use designated fire pits, and keep water nearby. Watch the wind, supervise children and pets, and never leave fires unattended. Always extinguish fires completely before leaving. By following these guidelines, we can prevent wildfires while enjoying outdoor gatherings. Remember, fire safety is everyone's responsibility – let's protect our communities and nature together. #plan #disasterresponse #fire #firedepartment #ems#paramedic #paramedics #response #emergencyresponse #firefighter #firefighters #responsetime #firstresponsesoftware #streetwise #cadlink #streetwisecadlink

6moThe problem with that in Running Springs is most of us didn't own all the property within 100 feet of our house. You had to rely on your neighbor doing the right thing.
