Be Prepared Before a Wildfire

As wildfires become more frequent, preparation has become a crucial part of living in fire-prone areas. Being proactive and having a well-thought-out plan can make all the difference in ensuring the safety of your loved ones, your pets, and your property. In addition to the steps above, it is important to have a “go bag” ready if the need arises; this is in addition to your emergency kit. This bag should contain essentials like medications, important documents (birth certificates, insurance policies), cash, and phone chargers.

Preparing for a wildfire requires careful planning and proactive measures. By creating a defensible space, assembling emergency kits, developing evacuation plans, and staying informed, you can significantly increase your chances of keeping your loved ones and your property safe in the face of this formidable natural disaster.
