Before you start lighting fireworks at home a little prep goes a long way. Setting up your fireworks the right way keeps the fun going and everyone around you safe.
Pick your launch zone — Before lighting anything, make sure you’re in a safe, open spot.
Flat and sturdy is key — Set fireworks on a hard, even surface away from homes, cars, trees, and flammable materials.
Keep them steady — Secure each item so it can’t fall over, and give your audience plenty of space.
Think of everyone around you — A little awareness goes a long way in protecting your guests and your neighborhood.
