Christmas tree fires accounted for $13.8 million in property damage last year. Here are a few quick tips from our friends at Servicemaster by Gilmore to keep your home safe and your holidays festive.
• Always keep your natural tree stand filled with water.
• You should never leave a tree up for more than two weeks.
• Never leave a lit tree unattended. Use an automatic timer to insure that lights are off before bedtime.
• Place the tree away from heat sources.
• Do not overload electrical outlets – make sure not to link more than three strands of tree lights together.
Have a happy and safe holiday.
