Creating a warm and inviting ambiance in your home? Battery-operated flameless candles are a great option. Not only do they look, smell, and feel like real candles, but they're also safer to use. ✨🕯️

If using decorative lights indoors or outdoors make sure they are rated for proper use and check for frayed or damaged cords. Discard damaged sets. #halloween
To prevent cooking fires, you must be alert. You will not be alert if you are sleepy, have consumed alcohol, or have taken medicine or drugs that make you drowsy
If a fire does start in your kitchen use a lid or an extinguisher. Cooking with grease/oil should be done very carefully. Stay in the kitchen while cooking.
