Halloween is for costumes, candy and fun! No one wants their fun to be spoiled by a fire! SERVPRO of Jefferson, Franklin, & Perry Counties wants everyone to have a fun and safe time this Halloween! We have a list of safety tips below provided by the National Fire Prevention Association.

• Candles - Refrain from having an open flame. Use battery-operated candles or glow-sticks in your jack-o-lanterns.
• Costumes - Choose the right costume. Stay away from long or flowing fabric, and skip extraneous costume pieces.
• Decorations - Avoid flammable decorations including dried flowers, cornstalks and crepe paper that are highly flammable. Keep decorations away from open flames and other heat sources, including light bulbs and heaters.
• Exits - Remember to keep all decorations away from doors so that they are not blocking any exits or escape routes.
• Smoke alarms - Make sure all your smoke alarms are working and up to date.
• Visibility - Provide flashlights to children or have them carry glow sticks as part of their costumes. Make sure if a child is wearing a mask that the eye holes are large enough to see out of them.
