Keep Your Christmas Tree Safe

The U.S. Fire Administration is reminding people to keep their Christmas trees, and homes safe this holiday season. The group says there are some basic safety rules that can protect your family, including keeping candles at least one foot away from anything that burns, including the tree. Water your tree every day, as dry trees can catch on fire easily. Keep the tree at least three feet away from heat sources, like fireplaces, space heaters, or heat vents. Also remember to turn out the lights before you go to bed. Have you ever had a malfunction or issue with your tree?  What happened?
