It is summer and traditionally during this period the situation with fires is aggravated due to fires of garbage and dry grass. Poplar down is no less dangerous. This flammable natural material accumulates in courtyards, near buildings,and Parking lots. Any spark - and fluff flares up like gunpowder.
The emergency Department of the Zharma district warns citizens that they need to be careful. An UN-extinguished cigarette butt or match, fire work, or a child's prank can instantly cause a fire.
To prevent poplar fluff from becoming a source of fire, follow simple rules:
- be careful when handling any sources of open fire;
- stop the games of teenagers and children associated with setting fire to the fluff. Explain that such a prank can lead to serious consequences. Material damage from fires caused by a child's prank is compensated by parents;
- carefully spend preparation for carrying out welding and other hot work;
- be extremely careful when launching pyrotechnic devices and sky lanterns;
- to prevent poplar fluff fires, utilities and service organizations are recommended to pay attention to timely cleaning, cleaning and spilling yards, sidewalks, and other places where poplar fluff accumulates;
- residents of the private sector should take care of cleaning the surrounding areas. For the best effect, poplar down must be wetted with water, and then, when it becomes heavy, swept.
Remember, compliance with basic fire safety rules will eliminate the possibility of a fire, and will save your property!
