Candle Safety to Avoid Fires

Many homeowners, such as this family in Edgeworth, use candles to create an ambiance or mask smells. Here are some tips to avoid starting your home on fire when using candles.

•      Keep candles away from pets – cats especially like to play with the flames of a candle.
•      Place something under the candle – the hot glass from the candle can leave behind burn marks on coffee tables.
•      Avoid open windows – the curtains get blown into the path of the flame and can quickly catch fire.
