Sparkler and Fireworks Safety Fireworks cause over 19,000 fires every year. Take the proper precautions when operating fireworks. • Never disassemble or try to make your own fireworks. • Don't point sparklers, or fireworks at yourself or others, especially when lighting them. • Only light fireworks on the ground and in areas that are dry and fire-resistant. • Don't attempt to ignite fireworks at the same time. • Never allow young children to handle fireworks or sparklers to prevent firework-related injuries. • Always keep a portable fire extinguisher close by. Also, keep a water hose or buckets of water nearby to put out fires. • If fireworks malfunction, don't relight them! Douse and soak malfunctioning fireworks with water then throw them away. • Resist the urge to bring your dog to a fireworks display. The safest place for them is at home where it's familiar, quiet and not crowded. Never allow young children to handle fireworks or sparklers to prevent firework-related injuries. Sparklers are hot enough to cause severe burns if mishandled. • Instead of sparklers for your children, consider these alternatives: o Glow sticks o A confetti canon or poppers o Colorful streamers o Silly string o A light-up laser show or digital fireworks projection • Always keep a portable fire extinguisher nearby close by. Also, keep a water hose or buckets of water nearby to put out fires. • If fireworks malfunction, don't relight them! • Douse and soak malfunctioning fireworks with water, then throw them away.
