Have a designated, responsible adult of firework/sparkler products. Alcohol and Fireworks are an invitation to disaster.
Firework/Sparkler products shall be placed on a hard surface. Please see instructions on the firework/sparkler product for safe placement.
Make sure an ample fuse is showing from the sparkler product. If the fuse is not visible, do not light the product.
Always display firework/sparkler products in an open surrounding and away from trees, canopies, any and all flammable / combustible liquids, and structures.
Always keep spectators, especially children, at a safe distance. Children should never be encouraged to ignite firework / sparkler products.
Have a bucket of water and a charged garden hose available for “duds” or small fires. Make sure the unlit sparkler product is cooled prior to picking up the product and submerging in water.
Never attempt to re-ignite “duds”, or firework products that failed to activate. Failure to adhere to this provision will cause severe burns to the face, chest, and hands.
If a firework/sparkler product burns you, immerse the burn in cool water and seek medical attention immediately. Never place butter, oils or greasy products on a burn! This promotes infection of the burn area!
