Residents can help by doing FireSmart tasks around their property. Examples include:
- Remove combustible materials and debris, such as leaves and pine needles, from around the home and maintain a 1.5-metre non-combustible zone.
- Ensure firewood piles are 10 metres away from any building on the property. Wood piled against a house is a major fire hazard.
- Maintain trees by removing dead leaves, twigs and branches.
- Plant that are less susceptible to ignition. FireSmart selections offer several benefits, including water conservation and the attraction of pollinators.
