The theme of this year’s #FirePreventionWeek is “Cooking safety starts with you. Pay attention to fire prevention”. So don’t step away from the stove – fires can start in seconds. 🚒 Cooking equipment and smoker's material and open flame continue to be the leading causes of fire in residential fires.
