How to Protect Your Home from Wildfires
Summer heat can bring wildfires. If you live in an area where they are common, there are steps you can take to minimize damage.
The best thing you can do is use fire resistant building materials. If this isn’t possible, be sure to remove flammable materials, such as leaves, from your roof and store gasoline away from occupied buildings.
