The need to prevent your home from the ravages and destruction of fire cannot be overstated and so is the need to install smoke detectors and fire alarms. These detectors can save you family from the grief that usually accompanies the loss of a family member or a lifetime investment such as a home. However, these detectors cannot prevent fire in themselves; simple fire prevention strategies should be cultivated. These strategies include;

•    When cooking, keep all inflammable chemicals and substances that can burn away from the range of fire. Cooking should always take place in the kitchen.
•    Matches and lighters should always be stored in locked cabinets.
•    Keep space heaters away from anything that can catch fire.
•    All electrical appliances and connections should be closely monitored.
•    Learn how to effectively use the extinguisher to put off fires before they spread.
•    As a last resort, there should be an escape route in the eventuality of fire.
