With the warmer weather comes much more outdoor fires such as a bonfire. This might sound like a fun idea, but it can also be dangerous and cause a bigger fire. It is important to take precautions if you plan on having a bonfire. 

Here are some safety guidelines to follow:

  • Never build a bonfire on a high-wind night.
  • Keep a bucket of water or garden hose nearby 
  • Keep a close eye on the bonfire as well as anyone nearby the fire.
  • Do not burn aerosols, canisters, or anything containing foam or paint. 
  • Ensure the wood you are burning is dry and seasoned.
  • The pile shouldn't be bigger than 5' x 5'.

After the bonfire is done, turn over the materials with metal shovels and douse the area with water. Make sure to follow all fire and safety guidelines to ensure that a fire doesn't start. 

SERVPRO of Norwood West Roxbury is available 24/7 including holidays and weekends to assist you with your disaster needs to get it back to “Like it never even happened.”
