Fireworks Saftey

There are nearly 10,000 injuries across the United States on an annual basis as the result of the improper use of fireworks. Most of those who are injured are children and adolescents. The most common injuries include loss of eyesight, loss of limbs, and severe burns to the hands and face. Most of these injuries are due to improper use, short fuses, defective products, re-lighting of fireworks, erratic flight, and use of alcohol while playing with fireworks. The firecracker is the most common firework to cause injuries. However, even the most innocent seeming firework of them all, the sparkler, burns as hot as 1000 degrees Fahrenheit. It can quickly catch clothing on fire causing severe burns. But using some common safety precautions will enable you to have a safe and enjoyable Fourth of July:

Saftey Precautions

  • Always read and follow directions
  • Have a adult present
  • Buy Legal Fireworks
  • Ignite one at a time.
  • Never shoot fire works from containers.
  • Never give fireworks to small children
  • Never reignite malfunctioning fireworks, soak them in a pail of water
  • Never throw fireworks at another person.
  • Have water available
  • Be sure everyone is out of range

Following these tips will help to ensure that you enjoy the 4th of July holiday.
