There are three zones around your home, each requiring a different level of fire prevention safety. Here are just a few of the ways you can address each zone:
Zone 1: 0 to 5 ft
- Landscape your property using noncombustible materials like rock, cement, sand, stone pavers, gravel or dirt.
- Clear your roof and rain gutters of any leaves or needles.
- Keep tree branches 10 feet away from your chimney and remove any dead branches that are on top of or touching your roof.
Zone 2: 5 to 30 ft
- Avoid extensive use of mulch.
- Regularly inspect the foliage around your home and remove any dead plants, grass, or weeds.
- Keep all wood piles and gas or propane tanks outside of the home.
Zone 3: 30 – 100 ft
- Never allow your grass to grow higher than 4 inches.
- Leave spaces between grass, shrubs, and trees.
- Opt for low-growing landscaping like plants, vegetables, succulents, flowers, and grass.
