🔥 Before you turn on the stove, take a quick look around your kitchen.
Are dish towels and paper products away from the burners?
Are pot handles turned inward?
Is the area around your cooking appliances clear?
Are your smoke alarms working?
And once you start cooking, stay nearby and keep an eye on what’s happening.
This Fire Prevention Month, make these simple habits part of your everyday cooking routine. A little preparation can help prevent a small mistake from becoming a much bigger problem. 🏠💙
