Halloween Fire Safety
The Firefighters and Staff of Katy Fire Department would like to remind everyone of some important fire safety tips during Halloween:
- Avoid costumes with long fabric and make sure your child can see clearly under their mask.
- Always carry a flashlight or integrate glow-sticks into your child's costume.
- Keep all decorations away from open flames and heat sources.
- Use battery operated candles or glow-sticks inside jack-o-lanterns. Lit candles should be monitored with extreme caution around children. Keep your jack-o-lanterns away from doorsteps, walkways, yards, and anything that can burn, as it is both a fire and trip hazard.
- Do not block exits with decorations.
- Check all smoke and carbon monoxide alarms to ensure they work.
- Remind children to stay away from open flames including jack-o-lanterns. Make sure they know how to “stop, drop, and roll” should their clothing catch fire.
- If your children are attending a Halloween party at another's home, ensure they plan an escape route from the home in case of an emergency.
Katy Fire Department will also have Firethorne Fire Engine #3 roaming around Firethorne on Halloween night, so if the kids are out and about make sure to say “hello”, or give a wave to the crew!
