• Use extreme caution when lighting fireworks in the wind.
• Keep spectators where the wind is blowing away from them.
• Never smoke or consume alcohol when lighting fireworks.
• Store fireworks in a cool, dry place away from the reach of children.
• Steer clear of others setting off fireworks. They can backfire or shoot off in the wrong
  direction.
•  Do not attempt to make or alter any fireworks or firework devices.
• Always have a fire extinguisher or water supply, such as a hose or bucket of water, nearby.
• Only light one firework at a time and never attempt to re-light or fix a “dud” firework.
• Think about pets. Animals have sensitive ears and can be very frightened or stressed by firework sounds.
